Hi,

I've got two problems. First, i don't speak english very well, so i hope you can understant what I say.
Second, more interessant for you, i want to know if it's possible to make an ODBC link with an Access DataBase using NSIS. if yes, how??

Thanks for your answers...

let's split the problem. nsis allows you to execute program. so lets create that link the same (or very similar) way as u used to (ur favorite scripting lng or ...)

and btw sorry for my english too :(

I know that OBDC links are stored in the registry ... you could use existing ones to have to correct keys to create in order to have a new ODBC link :)
