Obscure ODBC error Help!

An application called DBMS Copy is giving me an error every time I try
to connect to an ODBC database.

ERROR #1552 : ODBC, Connect Error -> [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager]
Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Anly clues appreciated.

Thanks

Paul

Well, I would call this error anything but "obscure" ... sounds like
the ODBC datasource name was hosed ... happens sometimes after a
system update.

Or perhaps there is a local file database (MSAccess?) which was moved
to a different location and cannot be found by ODBC ... or the DB
resides on the network and something else was changed (IP address,
domain name, directory)?

Could be a lot of things. What kind of data source is/was it?
