OK, I've screwed up. I've been playing around where I shouldn't have and have really messed up my ODBC settings in WINNT4.0 SP5. I have to admint I did play around with my registry (oops).

Basically, I used to see the multitab ODBC settings dialog box when I navigated through Start|Settings|ODBC applet window. Now I get a single page dialog box with my User and System DNS listing in a single window. I also have two entries in my Settings|ODBC applet window.

What I attempted to do here is upgrade an informix ODBC driver (from 2.5 to 3.32) with no success.

Is there a somewhat brainless of way of resetting my ODBC settings to a stock Windows install so that I can at least get the old informix driver back up and running?

Unfortunately, out IT support people are not really ODBC savvy and of course, time is of the essence.

Thanks,
