Do you have the ODBC database registered with the correct driver?
I don't use odbc much - but most of the time I've found when it works on
one machine but not another there's a problem with how the database
and/or driver is registered (if it is at all).
It could also be a difference driver in levels; never worked with the
SQL Server driver.
