I have tried reinstalling several times but cfsnippets does not appear as a data source. I there another way to install ODBC?

 
I did this last night. If you have Cold Fusion Professional installed on Windows 2000, then goto Control Panel / Settings/ DataSources (it might not be in this exact order for Windows 2000, but you're looking for the ODBC icon).

After you click it, move to the tab &quot;System DSN&quot;. Click Add, and give a name for the datasource that you'll later use in your code as <cfquery datasource=&quot;DSNAME&quot;>. Next click on the Select button to specify the physical location of the database.

I hope this helps you.
