    API function

    I need to open the ODBC data sources window box from inside my VB application. Can some one let me know which API function I need to use.

    Re: API function

    use this command in VB for a winnt OS

    Shell "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL c:\winnt\system32\odbccp32.cpl", vbNormalFocus

    use this command in VB for a Win 95 OS

    Shell "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL c:\win95\system32\odbccp32.cpl", vbNormalFocus

    use this command in VB for a Win 95 OS

    Shell "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL c:\win98\system32\odbccp32.cpl", vbNormalFocus

    Dont change the Case of the String within double quotes its case sensitive
