Connect SQL 2005 to another database?

I'm trying to connect my SQL server to a Progress database. I have the DSN setup but I don't have a clue how to get to it or the database I'm trying to access. All I want to do is be able to view all the tables in SQL from the Progress database so I can build reports. I can't imagine this is too difficult but right now it is for me. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony Sheehan

|||Hi Uri,
Thanks for the idea. I managed to speak with someone yesterday that mentioned this and this is the answer I was looking for. Thank you for your reply.
