It would be really nice to have an ability to specify an ODBC connection using a File DSN as a command line argument. Currently, a user or system DSN named SIW must be created in Windows before running the SIW ODBC report. Sometimes it is not feasible to create a user or system DSN. In those cases, a File DSN could come really useful.

Thank you for the great tool!

Thanks for your helpful suggestion. I will implement it ASAP as a "/filedsn=" command line option.
Until then, please use the ODBC command line arguments; check note #7
Thanks,
