Connecting to data sources

Hi
I want to see data of a Btrieve database from access 2003.
I have DDF files and the odbc driver and have made a data source.
But to connect to this data source,from file menu,get external
data,import, when I try to change the
type of files to 'ODBC Databases' the import window is closed and
nothing happens.
What's on?
Is this the only way of connecting to a data source?

Any thing is appreciated.

If you use Norton AntiVirus, try disabling the Office Plug-In. (You'll find
it under 'miscellaneous' in the Norton AntiVirus options).

Thank you
Now it is working.

But now I'm engaged with another problem:I can't see the dsn I've
created.
I created it by Database Drivers 2.0 for Windows wich contains the last

Microsoft-provided ODBC driver for Btrieve, a 16 bit driver.
Ofcourse it is an antique thing nowadays but my only solution.

Thank you

I'm afraid I don't have any suggestion to offer about this new problem. If
no one else answers here, you could try posting the new question in the ODBC
newsgroup, microsoft.public.access.odbcclientsvr
