You have to use this DSN name (in your case it is sonia) in
your VB code wherever you wish to establish a connection
between your VB application and your SQL server 2K database.

You can used DSN Less Code here (which is more usefull
andimportant insteated of using DSN Coz when you run that
Application on Different PC, then you have to crete DSN
again..)
DSN Less Code for Connection MS ACCESS: or can connect any
db just need to change its provider:
dim con as new adodb.Connection
con.open "provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;" & "Data
Source= ur db path (there is no space btn Folder and File
Name)"
