Logon (Ours looks like the Banner Client Server Logon)
The Logon Form includes an Event (On Click in Connect) that verifies the Username/Password for the Database. This Event code builds a connect string and tries the connection (using SELECT SYSDATE FROM DUAL; Really, that is all you need.) It then applies that successful connect string to every Pass-Through Query in our MS Access Database (we call it BannerAccess). It can do several hundred in a second or so.
Next: Logon with separate DSN and DBQ
