Re: Changing Port number in a File DSN

["Arnold, Sandra" <ArnoldS(at)osti(dot)gov>]

I found a paper on "Using MS Access with PostgreSQL".  It did mention
that there was a bug that would not allow you to change the port number
when creating a file DSN that you had to edit the file.  Figured out how
to do that and I am now able to connect.  

Thanks,

Sandra

Either re-create the file DSN, or open the DSN file in a text editor and
manually alter the port number. I seem to remember that the latter
worked for me.
