Creating an ODBC connection with the pfadmin utility
  1. Open a Command Prompt window.
  2. If you have a Microsoft Access randomization source database, enter the following command:

    pfadmin CONFIG Trial <StudyName> /Rnd [<MDBFilePath>]

    • StudyName is the name of the study.
    • MDBFilePath is the full pathname of the Microsoft Access randomization source database.

    When prompted, enter:

    • The name of the study schema owner.
    • The password of the study schema owner.

    For example:

    PFAdmin config trial PFST60 /Rnd E:\InForm\Sample_PFST60\Rand\RndPFST60.mdb

Note: You must manually create a DSN for an Oracle randomization source database. You cannot use the pfadmin command. For more information, see Creating an ODBC connection using the Windows ODBC Manager.
