Send Form results to database error

Please help! Here's the error:




Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no
default driver specified

/email.asp, line 100


Where exactly is line 100? I've arrowed down 100 lines but that doesn't
seem to be where the error is!
Here's the email.asp page code:

'========================================================
' When you press ENTER in a text box, a carriage return
' is created. A carriage return is represented by a
' Chr(13). Because this information will be displayed
' as HTML, replace the carriage returns with
' the <br> tag.
'========================================================
Function ParseBody(strText)
'=================================================
' This function replaces the Chr(13) with a <br>
' tag in whatever string is passed to it.
'=================================================
strText = Replace(strText, Chr(13), "<br>")
ParseBody = strText
End Function


'========================================================
' Send results to the database.
' This portion of the page sends the information
' from the form to the Northwind sample database.
'========================================================

'========================================================
' Variable declaration:
' myConnString = Connection string to database.
' myConnection = The database connection object.
' mySQL = The query string to be used.
'========================================================
Dim myConnString
Dim myConnection
Dim mySQL

'========================================================
' Set up connection string. When you created the
' database connection in FrontPage called "Sample",
' FrontPage created an Application variable in the
' Global.asa file called "Sample_ConnectionString".
'
' Use that connection string by populating the
' myConnString variable with the value contained
' in the Application variable.
'
'%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
' You can modify this to work with your database by
' changing "Sample_ConnectionString" to reflect your
' FrontPage database connection. For example, if you
' defined your connection in FrontPage as "Database1",
' you would change the following line to this:
' myConnString = Application("Database1_ConnectionString")
'%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
myConnString = Application("IATSEEmail_ConnectionString")


'========================================================
' When you are using custom ASP to set up a connection to
' a database, you use a Connection to connect to the
' database. The following line creates that connection and
' assigns the myConnection variable to contain the
' Connection object.
'========================================================
Set myConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

'========================================================
' After the connection has been created, open it so that
' information can be written to the database. To do
' that, use the Open method and pass it the connection
' string that you defined earlier.
'========================================================
myConnection.Open myConnString

'========================================================
' This is the SQL string that queries the database.
' In this example, Request.Form("[form_field]")
' pulls information from the form and populates the SQL
' string with it.

' database by following this format. Pay special
' attention to the fact that spaces are not optional.

' mySQL = "INSERT INTO [your_table_name] "
' mySQL = mySQL & "([database_field_names]) "
