Typically, one would go to start->control panel->administrative tools->data sources (odbc)-->system dsn (tab)->configure-> and select, to choose a database. This script lets the user select the .mdb file they want to use as the DSN and then it updates the string in the registry file to the path and name of the chosen .mdb.
