You can add them to Server Explorer (modulo the capabilities of your ODBC
driver) by selecting the OLE DB provider for ODBC drivers on the providers
tab when adding a connection to server explorer. However, you can't use them
with any Visual Studio wizards until the next (Everett) release of Visual
Studio. And you can't even handcode a string that would use the OLE DB
provider for ODBC drivers (MSDASQL) with the .NET OleDb data provider. You
must use the Odbc data provider (but, as you say, that works fine).
