How to add a File DSN 3

[maxcare]

Iam reporting of a Text file with Crystal Reports.I found that I need to set up a File DSN for my Reports to work on the client.I was trying to add a similar set up as on my PC.

My PC has a User DSN called whoes data source name is " Text Files". And I have a File DSN whose daat source name is the same "Text Files".

On the user PC I need a to add a File DSN.But Iam not able to name the data source when I click on configure as those fields are disabled.Can anyone tell me how to configure this as I have no idea about ODBC.

You might not have an appropriate permission to establish ODBC connetion. It might be a good idea to consult your local network admin to provide you a permission to accomplish this.

I'm working with VB 6 + Crystal 8 + Access2k and using an ODBC connection (File DSN) to my reports (in RDC mode).

When I run the application on my machine, I got successfull.

Therefone, when I run the application on client's machine, the error appears: 'Database has bot yet opened..'

What is wrong?
