MVC2: How to connect to ODBC datasource

I have built an ASP.NET classic application that references an ODBC connection to a DBISAM database.

When I try to connect to the same database in a MVC2 application I do not see any option to select an ODBC Data Source.

1. I right-click on my Models folder and select Add -> New Item

2. Choose "Data" on the left panel

3. Select ADO.NET Entity Data Model 开发者_运维问答 than click "Add"

      Options were:
   
                        ADO.NET Entity Data Model
   
                        DataSet
   
                        LINQ to SQL Classes
   
                        SQL Server Database
   
                        XML File
   
                        XML Schema
   
                        XSLT File
   

4. Select "Generate from database..... click "Next"

5. Here I am presented with a "Choose Your Data Connection" screen. When I click the "New Connection" button I am given a "Choose Data Source" screen.

6. I am only presented with the following options on the "Choose Data Source" screen:

Microsoft SQL Server

Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5

Microsoft SQL Server Database File

1. This is where I expected to see ODBC as one of my options. What do I need to do to access ODBC?

Thank You for all help provided!
