[AccessD] A97 - SQL Linked Table

I agree but.....
I am having a heap load of troubles connecting and this was one last try to
see if this would correct the problem.
I have a dsn and sometimes can connect ok, move to another workstation and I
get ODBC failures, move back and my machine and find is not
working/connecting, other users get the 'Connect to SQL' dialog pooping up
and so on.
