New / Changed elements

Element Description
Data source name This value can be anything and is usually the same type of value used in the Microsoft Windows ODBC Manager. It's only used in the report and does not need to be the same as an existing File, System, or User DSN.
Attributes Additional connection string options. This differs from database driver to database driver and can be something like MultipleActiveResultSets=True, D6=1, or IpAddress=x.x.x.x.
Database Select from a list of databases or type the name. This may differ per database driver and may be empty if the database gets selected later.
