CarlWarner- That worked perfectly. &nbsp;Thanks! &nbsp;Should I delete the file DSN or just leave it be?<br />

I believe you can delete it. &nbsp;You don't need redundancy in this case.

I have a brand new Server 2003 / Citrix Metaframe box. &nbsp;It has an ODBC driver for Providex (Mas200). &nbsp;An administrator can run an ODBC query via Excel or Crystal Reports but an ordinary user cannot. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
They get error:<br />
[odbc driver manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified.<br />
<br />
A file DSN exists for SOTAMAS90 but the fields are empty- when I am logged in as admin the fields are filled in correctly. &nbsp;This works for more that one administrative user so it appears to be a Server 2003 security issue... &nbsp;This same setup works fine for the old Windows 2000 server. &nbsp;Any advice? &nbsp;<br />

Thanks in advance.
