i hav created an application using odbc as data source. the connection to the database uses the following code:

dim myconnection as new odbc.odbcConnection("server=192.168.100.84";dsn=cleaners)
myconnection.open
..
..
the above code does well when i change the ip address to 127.0.0.1 i.e to localhost.but when i use it on a computer on a network, i get an erroe message which reads:

"invalid instance()","invalid connection"
my aim is to create an application which can be put on a central server and aother machines to access and run it(by creating shortcut to their local machines).
can somebody help me?
