 Problems with data control in VB 4.0 and ODBC data sources

Hi,

I am experiencing problems trying to use the data control top create a
quick front end to my SQL database. I have the ODBC installed and working
(I have tested it in Access 7.0) but when I try and define the connect
property it does not list ODBC or any of my defined data sources. The list
starts with Access and ends with text with all kinds of spreadsheet formats
in between but no ODBC data sources or sql database like in Access.

I tried using the data manager and it can connect but I can't seem to
define my own data control.

Any ideas? Email replies appreciated.

Go to the help file for the Connect property in VB and you will see that
you must type ODBC and all its needed parameters for your datasource.
