I am creating an application using MFC, and I need to create a process
that would communicate with another process that is sitting on the
different machine but on the same network. Could someone tell me how do
I utilize ODBC to start the conversation between these two machine?

Thanks

Before you buy.

Are you planning to communicate through a database?

I would think CAsyncSocket would be more appropriate; communicating via
TCP/IP rather than through a D/B.

ODBC is Open DataBase Connectivity --- it allows your program running
anywhere to access data in an ODBC compliant database anywhere else. The key
here is Database! Two programs could indeed "communicate" across the network
using ODBC but only if the shared access to a common database where they can
write and/or read records to exchange data.... If you really want the two
programs to communicate i.e. pass variables back and forth there are better
ways then ODBC....
