Do I need to set up ODBC drivers before I connect to my MSDE server? I'm having difficulty connecting and thought that maybe this is why...??

??? You should already have ODBC drivers. It never hurts to download the latest MDAC. What errors are you getting when you try to connect? Also, just for fun go to www.connectionstrings.com and browse through a list of valid connection strings.
