Narrative:

We were climbing on the CLARE2 RNAV departure from dfw. We had previously checked the accuracy of the information loaded into the FMS. After passing poten on the departure; the aircraft flew direct towards swb instead of tekbe. Approximately 20 NM west of tekbe and south of our required course; we reinserted tekbe and corrected course. There were no known conflicts with other aircraft because of our deviation.
