ODBC connection dialog box

Hello All,

is it possible to make the ODBC connection dialog box appear when connecting to a db using the classes in the System.Data.Odbc namespace? I could not find a way except for invoking the win32 API that I would want to avoid.

Thank you for any help.

BR,

AFAIK there is nothing like this in the framework ,
you could try to implement your own dialog though.
cheers,
