    I have never used veritas, but the error message clears tells you exactly what you have to do.

    First you have to create a system dsn using odbc administrator in the server. Then configure the setting by providing dsn name, login and password. Did you try this?

    I tried what it said in the command prompt and it came back with error that the system could not find the specified file.

    I know very little about DNS and ODBC things. Maybe you could prompt me on it.

    Thanks
