That was it.  And it comes with a little wizard for manually editing the
file.  Cool.

Not at all.  I don't know this stuff

>Control Panel > Data Sources (ODBC)

I don't have that.  Windows XP Profession SP2

>HKLM\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI

I don't understand this one.  Is this a directory path?  A registry key?

Hopefully I'm not being condescending.

If this is for your machine only:

Control Panel > Data Sources (ODBC)

If you need it programmable:
HKLM\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI
