Before an FCAS application can connect to an ODBC-compliant database, you must use Windows to create an ODBC data source. To do this: 1       Open ODBC in the Windows Control Panel. 2       Click Add on the ODBC Data Source Administrator's System DSN tab. 3       Select the ODBC driver for your database. 4       Click Finish. 5       Fill in the fields to set up the driver. For help, use Windows' online help or see the driver manufacturer's documentation.         Note You need only connect to your ODBC database source once for all applications. If you want to test the data source, you can connect to it with an ODBC client such as Microsoft Query, Microsoft Access, or Microsoft Excel.
