Note:
The int 4 refers to the value "ODBC_ADD_SYS_DSN". To remove a system DSN use
the int 6. See below:
1 - ODBC_ADD_DSN (use this to add a user DSN)
2 - ODBC_CONFIG_DSN (use this to configure a user DSN)
3 - ODBC_REMOVE_DSN (use this to remove a user DSN)
4 - ODBC_ADD_SYS_DSN (use this to add a system DSN)
5 - ODBC_CONFIG_SYS_DSN (use this to configure a system DSN)
6 - ODBC_REMOVE_SYS_DSN (use this to remove a system DSN)
Also, you must include the following using reference:
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
