In the following,there is just one line of code I can't get right. Any ideas on this? I am trying to take a text string and upload it from my computer to an external server.
The error message is [Microsoft][ODBC Drive Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Code:
            If Range("upload") Then
            aa = Application.Range("GH14").Value
            bb = Format(Range("TOE"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
            cc = Format(Range("TOE"), "h:mm:ss")
            dd = Range("ver").Value
            InsertData aa, bb, cc, dd
            End If

Code:
Sub InsertData(ByVal strFirst As String, ByVal strSecond As String, ByVal strThird As String, ByVal strFourth As String)
    Dim conn As New ADODB.Connection
    Dim sql As String
       
    Set conn = New ADODB.Connection
    
    conn.Open "DFRSRainbow" ' THIS LINE OF CODE IS NOT RIGHT
    
    ' delete table contents
    sql = "DELETE FROM tradingdata;"
    conn.Execute sql
    
    ' write new entries using passed arguments
    sql = "insert into tradingdata (first,second,third,fourth) values ('" & strFirst & "','" & strSecond & "','" & strThird & "','" & strFourth & "');"
    conn.Execute sql
    
    ' clean up
    conn.Close
    Set conn = Nothing
End Sub
