Hi,
I have a DSN file that i've been using successfully for some time to
connect to my data source. It's in the format of:
[ODBC]
DRIVER=SQL Server
SERVER=<my server name>
DATABASE=<my database name>
[Microsoft Office]
UID=<my user name>
PWD=<my password>
The problem i'm now getting is that when I connect to a query i've
created (or create a new one) using this DSN i'm being prompted for my
password. It's populating the username with the on in the file, so I
guess it must be reading hte file correctly. The only thing I can think
of is that i've recently upgraded to Excel 2003 from Excel 97, but I
can't find any info on why it no longer regognises the password when
googeling.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
