ODBC - Can use file DSN in Rev?

Hi,

Will Revolution work with a FileDSN to make an ODBC connection to a 
database?  I've tried a little without success.  I found some entries in 
the Rev forums that concluded that it was broken 
(http://forums.runrev.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2382) and they were 
going to submit a bug report.  But I could not locate this report in the 
QCC.

I'd like to make my app self-contained and avoid making the user 
configure a DSN, or make registry entries to be able to connect to a 
remote database.

Any knowledge out there on this subject?

Thanks,
--Scott
