Author Making ODBC work

Hello,

When trying to set up programs (dbQwikSite, Adobe Designer) to work with
ODBC databases, I encounter the following during setup of the programs:
"it connects, but if I set the initial catalog to any database it says:
"Test connection failed because of an error initializing provider.
Catastrophic Failure."

But when I connect with the initial catalog field empty it connects
successfully.

How do I fix this problem?

TIA,
Newsscanner.

Almost forgot,

Thanks.
