Thanks Eric, I think I can use 'DBEngine.RegisterDatabase' to do what I
need.

Mark,

setting up the driver or the ODBC (user/system/file) dsn?
The driver has to be installed on the system, no way to automate this
but
with execution of the driver installation file.

As for setting up an ODBC connection to a database you could look into
this
hint: dbengine.RegisterDatabase

I also found this code on the web:

Does anyone know of a way to automate the process of setting up an ODBC
driver to a SQL Server?

This would be extremely helpful.
