How to get VB.NET app to explore for Odbc DSN?

This is a discussion on How to get VB.NET app to explore for Odbc DSN? within the ODBC forums in Framework and Interface Programming category; I used to program VB 6 using RDO to access ODBC. When opening an ODBC connection with RDO, it was possible to configure a parameter to allow the ODBC Data Source Administrator to pop up, allowing you to create/edit ODBC data sources on the fly, and then return the DSN of the one you selected. I see no way of triggering this behaviour or something like it in .NET - (whether VB or C#) Does anyone know how to do this - or emulate it? Thanks!...

Default How to get VB.NET app to explore for Odbc DSN?

I used to program VB 6 using RDO to access ODBC.

When opening an ODBC connection with RDO, it was possible to configure a
parameter to allow the ODBC Data Source Administrator to pop up, allowing
you to create/edit ODBC data sources on the fly, and then return the DSN of
the one you selected.

I see no way of triggering this behaviour or something like it in .NET -
(whether VB or C#)

Does anyone know how to do this - or emulate it?

Thanks!
