ODBC connection with MS Access

I have an AS/400 9406-600 (stop laughing Al) running V5R2 and a
Gateway 2.9mhz pc w/ 1 gig memory running WXP Home.  I'd like to use
MS Access 2002 to
data files on the 400.

I've apparently gotten ODBC configured because I was asked to supply a
password for the default signon (just like when establishing a session for
the first time each day) and it apparently made the connection.  What now?
Where do I look to make the connection from Access?  Should I see a new
entry under "My Network Places"?  When I open a blank Access database and
say I want to link to a new table, should I see a new place for the data?

TIA.
