HI all,

I want to connect sql server on my machine to application which is on another machine and i am doing this by ODBC calls .I made one file dsn and used the perl syntax as

 my $connection = new Win32::ODBC($DSN);where $DSN="C:/Program Files/Common Files/ODBC/Data Sources/Test.dsn";

the error i got is :

 Error connecting to SQLServer
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at C:/Perl/s
+ite/lib/Wi
n32/ODBC.pm line 785.
Error : [911] [] "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name no
+t found an
d no default driver specified"/
