sql ser via java

[a]

i created several classes that retrieve data from a SQL Server. Question:
on my development side, i created an ODBC connection hooking up to the SQL
Server (2000). I used the jdbcdbc:sourcename, next i tested it and it
worked great on my pc, i went to test it elsewhere. Mapped a directory on
their NT wkstn. it asked for a odbc source name not valid. i thought it
didn't matter in java. do i need to create an odbc in all the 20 plus pc's?
this will be accesseed only like a "windows" application and not by browser--thanks
for any info you can help with.

Your application needs to use the ODBC data source on the local host. The
data source connects to the ODBC data file specified. You map to a remote
directory but the ODBC data source simply looks for a file in the path specified.
You need to setup the data source where you application runs.
