Hi there, Im doing an app that involves an acces database the problem is:

the database will be always in the same location, but the app will be excecuted in several machines so I´ll need to make the DSN in all of them.

How do I make a connection without having to make a DSN in all of the machines?
Thanks

Ive solved this big problem using OleDb library and a connection string is much easier.
