Configuring File DSN
How to invoke configure dialog for a File DSN from C program? I can do it for System/user DSN using SQLConfigDataSource.
Thanks in advance,
Manoj

Thanks for your time.
Using SQLConfigDataSource I can modify a system/user DSN also, similarly I want to modify a "FILE DSN", i don't wan to invoke the Manage DSN dialog, i just want to invoke the modify configuration dialog for a "FILE DSN".

Here is an Article in the Microsoft Knowledgebase, you may check out that :

It describes pretty welll about DSN Less connections and FILE DSN connections.

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I think you misunderstood my requirement. I can create a FILE DSN there is no problem, the requirement is how can I popup the configure FILE DSN dialog just like when we modify a System/User DSN using SQLConfigDataSource with a valid handle as the first parameter. Using this dialog we can configure the data format using "Define format...", which will in turn create a schema.ini in the data folder(I am talking about microsoftt text/csv driver.

Re: Configuring File DSN
How can you create a software there users need to think? here if I am showing Manage DSN dialog then user need to navigate to FILE DSN tab and he need to identify the file? why introducing these complexity to the user?
