OdbcNetTools is a library developed to accomplish the following tasks in your Microsoft .Net applications.

• Get list of DSNs on your system.
• Get list of all ODBC drivers installed on your system.
• Create a new DSN (System as well as user).

entry.DBName = "Pardesi";
entry.Server = "localhost";
entry.TrustedConnection = false;
entry.LogLongQueries = true;
entry.QueryLogFile = "C:\\MyQueries.log";
OdbcTools.CreateDSN(DSNTypes.SYSTEM_DSN, entry);
							

[VB]

Sub Main()
  Dim entry As DBaseDSNEntry = New DBaseDSNEntry()
  entry.Name = "Reporting"
  entry.Directory = "C:\\ReportingData"
  entry.Description = "This is adbase dsn for reporting application"
  entry.Driver = "Microsoft dBase Driver (*.dbf)"
  entry.PageTimeOut = 20
