I have installed pervasive 9.5 client on workstation.When i try to create an ODBC DSN so that i run ACCPAC 5.4 i can't get a list of the DSN to select the particuluar DSN.Where am I going wrong.
 
Thanks for the reply.I have tried to use the ip address instead of the server name still doesn't help. if i run from the local machine using the server name or server ip address am able to see the files.What else could be wrong.
 
I don't know, this is pretty basic stuff.

1. ODBC
2. System DSN
3. Add
4. Select Pervasive Client
5. Enter DSN Name
6. Enter Server Address
7. Press Get DSN List

If you don't see the DSN's at this point, then your server name is wrong, or you have something blocking communications.
