Data Source Names (DSNs) on 2000, VS6

[VBMental]

Can someone tell me the proper way to add DSN on Visual Basic 6?

I'm using Windows 2000. In my applicaton, I use an ADODC and in the connection string, I ofcourse put the location of the DSN that I created using Add User Connection, however 'Add User Connection' doesn't even come up as an option anymore on the project-explorer shortcut so I do not know how to create the data source. Also I tried looking for ODBC in the control panel, but that's not there either.

Ok, I located the control panel file 'odbccp32.cpl' and created the DSN. It worked but I wonder why this wasn't in my control panel to begin with, and I still wonder how come the option to 'Add UserConnection' or 'Add DataEnvironment' disappeared from my VB project explorer menu.
