Configure ODBC Connection window
The ODBC 32-bit drivers are supported only. The 32-bit driver is found in the following location:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
Use this window to configure and test the supported ODBC connection strings using the following settings:
- Data source name (DSN)

This setting provides a list of system and user data source names (DSN) configured on the local computer. If a new DSN is added, click Refresh to update the list.
The DSNs visible in this list are already present on the local computer. In order for any interaction with this database to work in a production environment, you need to add the same DSN connection on any machine running the Tungsten Transformation Toolkit - Server, as well as any workstation running a User Interactive Module.
