Alternatively, you could create an OLE DB querytable (opposed to ODBC
querytable).

Raul,

Thanks a ton, i hadn't looking into ADO but its a much better way to do
this than through ODBC data sources... I had just spent the last hour
or so trying to build an msi package / installer for the users to run
to create the datasource if it didn't exist on their machine, and those
data sources are stored as hex values in the registry... its VERY
messy... Thanks again...
