You will have to use ODBC API. Download the SDK free from Microsoft.
http://www.microsoft.com/data/odbc In the ODBC help file check out
chapter 22 "Setup DLL API Reference"

If you use ODBCExpress to access the ODBC data, you can use a component
included in that product to set up your DSNs under program control. (See my
site).
