I am just starting in the SQL world, so I know this will probably be
extremely easy questions to answer.

1. On a machine that doesn't have SQL Server listed in the ODBC, how do I
install that driver? By installing MDAC?

2. I went to a Win98 ver A machine and it didn't have an ODBC shortcut in
Control Panel. Does this version not have ODBC?

Thanks.

Just posted to more groups.

1. You should open ODBC window, click on "Add" then slide down to SQL
Server, then pick the name for the source, choose a server it shall use,
type in login, password, test the connection and if everything's ok, You'll
be able to use this source in any query in any program that uses ODBC.

2. As far as I know it does have ODBC, but it was such a long time ago, when
I last used 98, that I can't tell You exactly where to look...
(Administrative Tools maybe?)
