Can anyone let me know what the problem is? Did I setup my MS access odbc data source incorrectly??

Hi,
Did you test the connection when you created it?

Is the database on the same machine as the report?

how do i test a connection?? i did it via the control panel, administrative tools, datasource odbc. Yes the report is on the same machine.I am doing a BO training and the training universe is use this ODBC data source to locate the MS Access database on my c drive. I don't think the universe recognize this datasource.
