You have an application that needs an ODBC link that is no longer there. My Win98 is a little rusty, but if I remember well, they are in the control panel under Data Access or ODBC.
Unfortunatly, their are several types of ODBC connectors, such as Access, SQL for starts.
The File Data Source is the source of the data it is looking for (sounds a bit like MS Access actually) and the Machine Look Up is the name of the ODBC link.
Best thing would be to find a computer where the software is still working and look at the ODBCs installed on that computer. Then add them to the new one. Also, note them so it doesn't happen again. If this software can be insalled via a setup program, I suggest you do it that way, cause the setup software usually sets up it's ODBCs.
Good luck.
