I am trying to add an ODBC System Data Source in control panel, but I do not see the Pervasive Engine Interface as an option. All I see in Pervasive Client Interface.

Why is this and how do I correct this?

Did you install a Workgroup or Server engine? The Pervasive Engine interface is only available on the machine where an engine is installed. WHere's the data you're trying to access? If it's remote and you've got an engine (Server only with 2000i, Workgroup or Server with V8), you'll need to use the Client Interface at the client and the Engine interface at the engine machine.
If you've got local data, you'll need a workgroup engine installed.

If you're using a server engine and your adding the DSN from a client you will not see the engine interface.

If your adding a new DSN the engine interface wizard will occur after the initial cleint interface set-up.
