Tyring to configure a DSN with ODBC 3.30, keeps telling me the locale and codeset are not found on my client machine, which is WIN98. Client and Database Locale both default to eng_US.CP1252. Same set up on WIN2000 works. How do I set the locale, or get it to recognize the default? Much thanks.

Much thanks. shouldn't that be en_us.cp1252 (without the "g") ?? Or just a typo? Paul
