Note: To connect to SQL Server either select an ODBC data source from the drop down list, enter the name of a server (or server/database or server,port/database, or machine/server/database), or enter a connection string (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms130822.aspx). If you enter a connection string, then you need to fully specify all the parameters (the server, user, password..)
To create an ODBC data source, bring up the Control Panel, select Administrative Tools, and then select Data Sources (ODBC).   Click on the Add button and then the SQL Server driver.  Proceed with the rest of the wizard.
