OK, this is probably mind-numbingly stupid, but...I cannot figure out
how to get the BDE to work properly with a file DSN. I am trying to use
the ODBC Text Driver to feed comma-delimited files into data-aware
controls. With a system DSN, it works fine. However, I am unable to
configure it to work properly with a File DSN; the Alias Manager, for
example, will not let me set the ODBC DSN field to the File DSN I have
created, and hard-coding in the full path to the DSN doesn't work for
me, either.

I'm obviously missing something basic. I humbly request someone tell me
what it is.
