AnswerODBC Connectivity to SQL Server 2000 tables using Visual Studio 2008

    When I create a connection to my ODBC, I can see Stored Procedures, but tables and views that exist in the same location do not show up in the Server Explorer window.

    Can someone tell me why this might happen?

    Finally figured it out. Was using the wrong communication path. We were trying to use SQL SERVER, when we needed to use OLEDB. Just took a while to figure it out.

    Thanks for responding!

    Can you explain more?

    Could it be permissions?
