Multiple Apps on System DSN on Server from One PC

A few years ago I wrote an active-X server to maintain a single
connection to a file .mdb from multiple apps on same PC because I was
having to many database curptions.

Should I use the same Active-X server for the same in a MS SQL Server
DSN connection or is it ok to have multiple apps from the same pc using
the DSN?

You don't need the ActiveX work-around for SQL Server. Unlike Access (Jet),
SQL Server is a true multi-user DBMS designed for many concurrent users.

Hope this helps.
