For ODBC datasources, you will need to first define them as System DSNs within the ODBC Administrator, then define them as CF datasources within the CF Administrator. Of course, you should avoid using ODBC if possible, as it generally won't perform as well as "pure Java" type 4 JDBC datasources. You should only use ODBC for databases that don't have corresponding JDBC drivers.
