Hello everyone!!

Hope some kind soul has the answer to my following question...

I've currently setup a System DBASE (ODBC) pointing to my goldmine datafiles..I use Windows 98.

The whole point of creating this ODBC is so that I can run Crystal reports from different machines...

There have been occasions when my reports have worked fine...BUT..lately there have been occasions when the ODBC drops it's database path and when I go back to setup an DBASE ODBC i get the ACCESS (MDB) setup screen!! This will only allow me to point to files ending with MDB not DBASE!!!

So where am i going wrong?? I've looked high and low for an answer to this question but have not come across anyone that can give me a solution!!

So here I am at this forum..trying again.....any help will be greatly appreaciated!
