Can I configure ODBC datasource programmatically?

5 views (last 30 days)
I have a directory of many Microsoft Access (*.mdb) database files. I can access the data and perform SQL queries using the Database Explorer from the Database Toolbox. To do this I have to manually configure in the GUI each database by choosing the Microsoft Access driver, assigning the data source name, and choosing the database (*.mdb) file.
Is there a way to write a script that configures each database without using the Database Explorer and GUI? There are hundreds of *.mdb files and I do not want to do this manually. Every example I see uses the Database Explorer method.
