)Our ODBC driver still requires DSN.
)
)There is a new version in the works that will work without it.

Also, when you are using DSN-less connection, you need to supply the OPTION
flag in the connection string itself. When you said it is working fine with
DSN connection, that means you have set some options in the connection
dialog, might be "Don't optimize column width". So when you are using other
way, provide OPTION=1 (Check which one you need to supply) with the
connection string, and everything will work fine.

Also, there waa a bug in the driver, even when application is using DSN-less
connection, driver always displays the connection dialog and waits for the
DSN to be entered (atleast you need to insert space). I fixed this couple of
days back, and the fix will be available for .39 version.
