 How to read dBASE IV with ODBC 32?

Hi there!
I have tried to read databases using ODBC with VB4 Prof. I didn't
have any problems with the 16-bit version: I can read dBASE, Access
etc.
But: the same procedure with VB32 fails!
When I select CONNECT the selection shows 'VCI MDB' only. No other
databases are listed.
Selecting VCI MDB displays another window and I'm asked for a password-
so what? I've never used any password and continuing without an input
causes errors:
SQL-State 01000, SQL-Server-Error 53 etc. etc.
What kind of password is required?
If I select Options there are no entries in the Database combo-box
and the entries ODBC Toy and the name of my machine are mentioned.

My question is: how can I access the same kinds of databases using
the 32Bit version of VB4 that I can access using the 16Bit version?
Do I have to run some kind of setup- if so: where can I find that
(I was one of the first buyers of VB4 Prof. and maybe there are some
updates available since then).

Tanx in advance!

You probably haven't set up a DSN for it in the 32-bit ODBC administrator
in the control panel.  I'm able to do this without any problems using the
ODBC API.
