Dear all


I am trying to use the odbc command to read data from an Access 
database - without any luck at all. I am stuck at the first hurdle. 
The database is called pat and the table is called cared. I thought 
the following command should work - but it doesn't. The problem is 
with dsn. 

odbc load, dsn("pat") table("cared")

Initially I had a directory path in the command but removed it and 
moved the file to the current directory.

When I type,

odbc query pat

I get a message indicating that the data source name is not found.

What am I doing wrong

Thanks in advance
Patrick
