Can't see MSDE Server

[Guest]

I have had multiple instances of MSDE installed and working without problems. I needed to install another instance. The new instance is visible from VS.Net and from the program that uses it. My problem is the server instance is not visible from Microsoft Access. I use access to setup schema. It is also not visible from the osql -L command

Any help is appreciated. If there is a better forum to post this on, please advise

Can you code an Access ADO object and connect to it, or do you mean it's not
visible in that the Access UI isn't displaying it?

1 is the default I believe

GUI interface is = SVRNETCN.exe can help makes sense of multiple
default or non-default instances of MSDE for network access.
