Well, I've fixed the maintain database problem with UT-A MDBFXREG per a prior post (sorry, should have found that before posting).  But, I guess my main problem is that I can't make any DSNs to my default company.  DEMODATA is the only database that shows up in pervasive control center.  Again, any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply, aricon.  The problem is I can't seem to make a System DSN in the odbc administrator.  After choosing the Pervasive ODBC Engine Interface driver I'm presented with a screen to choose the Database Name from a drop down list.  On my windows 2000 machine where it works fine, DBA shows up as one of the choices.  On the Win2k3 machine DBA doesn't show up, and all that shows up is the DEMODATA (which is also the only listed database in pervasive control center, which is wierd).  Thanks again!!!

Thanks for the help aricon.  I simply forgot how to make a dsn to the dba data since its been about a year and a half since i last did it.  When I originally did it I followed some instructions on a website that since seems to have been taken down.  If anybody wants me to post up a how-to on it I'd be happy to.  I'll also post up the asp code i use to connect and display dba data in a web page... if anybody's interested.  Thanks again for the help.

We have been running parts of DBA over our intranet for a while now, and works great for the most part.
 
Julian - question for you - does your ASP code handle "space-terminated" binary data?  I found that some fields do not display (or SQL SELECT, etc) properly unless the data is first processed through a transposing function.  Otherwise, some data appears like "???|||" (question marks and daggers).
 
If not, I would be willing to provide you the ASP functions that I've been using that are necessary to do this, just send me a message.
 
NOTE:  Client DSN's are not necessary to set up if your Pervasive server is hosting your intranet as well, since ASP is processed server-side.

I would gladly make a contribution toward the advancement of user knowledge of this methodology.  Lynn - look for a message in your inbox in the near future.  I will include a demonstration page to get users familiar with the function operations.

I've never actually written to the data in the DBA database, but i use the data from DBA and a mysql database to run a serialnumber log.  The ASP code I use to connect to DBA is as follows:

Pretty basic stuff that shows some info from the sales order files in DBA.  I haven't had any problems with the data showing up incorrectly... but I havent gone that deep into the data files with ASP.  That was some of the first ASP code I ever wrote, so please don't flame me...
