ODBC Setup

Post by matthewR »

How do I view the setup for an ODBC connection in Access. I created the connection and now I want to see it if that makes sense.

I am having a brain cramp.

When you say view, what do you want to see?
The way to view the properties of an ODBC connection is basically where you initially created it; In the Data Sources dialog of the Administrative Tools in Windows Control Panel. Instead of choosing New data Source, select Configure to see the properties of your existing connection.

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

If you wish to see all the parameters (for want of a better word) you can find them in one of the system (MSys...) tables
