ODBC basics

[pspafford]

I'm trying out ODBC for the first time? When I read the Help about "Enabling the Data Access Companions" it tells me this:

"1 Choose Edit menu > Preferences > Application.

2 Select the Plug-Ins tab.

3 Enable the Data Access Companion options and click Done."

But when I try to do this, the only option available is "Web Companion". I've tried re-installing, but this is still the only option I get.

Help.

FM will requrie this

You can download the MDAC 2.6 (the latest ODBC controls) from Microsoft's website.
