About the Data Sources pages

The ODBC, OLE DB, and Native data sources pages contain a table that allows you to configure a data source and to verify existing data sources.


Description

  1. Data Source Name Column. The text box allows you to enter the name for a new  data source; existing data sources appear in this column.

  2. ODBC, OLE DB, or Native Driver Column. The drop-down list allows selection of driver or provider for a new data source; existing data source drivers appear in this column.

  3. Status Column. If a data source connection has been verified, the status is either "OK" or "Failed."  

  4. Controls Column. The link enables you to individually verify a data source connection.
