I use a attachted SQL-Server table in MS-Access. In the ODBC-DSN configuration I have typed username and password.
When I try to open de SQL-tabel in MS-Access, ODBC asks me for the password because the passwordfield in the DSN is empty. Why does ODBC not store the password?

If somebody knows the answer it would be great.
