Selecting a Data Source

Use the first screen of the Database Wizard to select the type of data source to read.

ODBC Data Sources

If you do not have any ODBC data sources configured, or if you want to add a new data source, click Add ODBC Data Source.

An ODBC data source consists of two essential pieces of information: the driver that will be used to access the data and the location of the database you want to access. To specify data sources, you must have the appropriate drivers installed. Drivers for a variety of database formats are included with the installation media.
