I do not totally agree with srw's answer so i'd like to comment.1. All ODBC entries (in Win95, WinNT) ARE in the registry  &nbsp; (not possibly) so changing ODBC.INI is useless unless you're&nbsp; &nbsp;still working with windows 3.x2. There are utilities that can create a new ODBC datasource&nbsp; &nbsp;(restricted to the MDB and SQLServer drivers, as far as &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;i know.) and delete a source. They are delivered with  &nbsp; Internet Information Server 3.0 and run only on Win32  &nbsp; platforms. These are command-line utilities that can be&nbsp; &nbsp;called from BAT/CMD files and can be found in the&nbsp; &nbsp;/inetpub/scripts directory.Good luck.<br />

Thanks for your comment, both of you are right in certain way. So I am working on how to do the setting on the registry file.<br />

Is there any hidden option for odbcad32.exe?<br />
What I need to do is to administer data source (add, delete, <br />
admend) using dos prompt command. So how can I do it?
