I have been seeing this in the control panel right from the first release of Win95......What is it used for?.....Does the normal end user have anything to do with it?......All it shows is some database driver connections.....😕😕😕

It is a way for applications to access a database without having to have any special code built into the application trying to access the database. When you have an ODBC drive installed, any application that is a Win32 or Win16 application can access a database, as long as the driver is installed.

The end-user shouldn't ever need to use it, unless you have a database within your network the user would need to access.
