Re: How remove stale DSN ?

Regedit
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC
ODBC.INI contains data source names/DSNs - corresponding to the ODBC Administrator SYSTEM DSN tab
ODBCINST.INI contains driver versions registrations

\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ODBC --or-- \HKEY_USER\%user_id_key%\SOFTWARE\ODBC
ODBC.INI contains data source names/DSNs  - USER

At the momemnt I cannot remember if other registry keys are involved so this information definitely comes 
with no implied warranties.
