Try Using fileDSN's they are a whole lot eaiser to distribute You will probably have to manually enter your sqlserver name It is probably the same as your computer name. Make sure all of the sql services are running(dbl click small grey box on the taskbar with either a red box or green arrow). Make sure your sql server is registerd correctly. Look in sql7 Help.

Thanks - you helped alot (really)
