Error Datasource Name Not Found And No Default Driver Specified

Description

The error, "Datasource name not found and no default driver specified" is displayed when attempting to open a label in On-Demand Print Client.

Solution

This error can occur after adding an advanced connection string (to bypass a database login prompt) for multiple database key fields on the same label.
In this case, the structure of the Advanced connection string MUST include the DSN (Data Source Name).

Example

DSN=loftware;UID=scott;PWD=tiger.

Note: The above is the solution only if the error is caused by the connection string. This error may occur for other reasons.
