How do I connect to my Sybase Database from Server Explorer?

Server Explorer Add Connection dialog doesn't seem to see my ODBC data source.

Server Explorer implements OLEDB Data Sources so you will need to use a Sybase OLEDB provider.

Just an addendum, you *may* be able to use the generic OLEDB Provider for ODBC drivers to connect
using an ODBC DSN for Sybase.
