Check if ODBC data source is available (win)?

I want to check if a specific ODBC datasource is available on a user's computer.

Due to speed issues, I don't want to Create a Database connection but just: see if the datasource setting is available.


Is there a JSL command to get this info?

Most likely you could use Run Program()  and Get-OdbcDsn (Wdac) | Microsoft Learn

JMP + Run Program -> Powershell is really powerfull.
