Using Windows to Access ODBC Data
Gaining access to a SQL database in Windows is very much the same as making a FileMaker database available, only easier.

1 .From the Windows Start menu, go to Settings > Control Panel. When the Control Panel appears, double-click Administrative Tools. Double-click Data Sources (DBC).2 .When the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog box appears, select the System DSN tab. Click Add.3 .When the Create New Data Source dialog box appears, double-click the appropriate driver in the scrolling list (Figure 13.10).
Figure 13.10. FileMaker, Microsoft, and any third-party drivers you have installed will appear in the Create New Data Source dialog box.

Figure 13.11. FileMaker needs a name by which to identify the SQL file.

Figure 13.12. Select the database to be broadcast as an ODBC data source.
