Accessing Data and Files

When end users connect to the analytic sever software, their view of data sources and files is from the perspective of the server computer, not their desktop computers.

• ODBC data sources. If your end users need access to ODBC data sources defined on the server computer, distribute the names, descriptions, and login information for those data sources. See Data Access for a discussion of database access from the server software.
• File access. Distribute the names and locations of the files on the server computer that you want end users to access. See the topic Referencing Data for more information.
