Step 
1) find a really tall building.
Step 
2) jump
 
Seriously,
step 
one is be sure you're using MS Visual C, as there are all kinds of issues in 
trying to get the libraries working with other compilers.  Step two is get 
it working via odbctst.exe.  If you can get it working this far, you should 
be home free.  One last note, file DSN doesn't work for 
me.
 
User 
DSN, data source name is what you want to call the DSN, kind of like the name of 
a database link.  The server name = the instance name that you would use to 
connect via sqlplus.  IE if you connect scott/tiger@test, then use test in 
the server box.  I didn't get the System or File DSN parts 
working.
