hi folks,

here is the problem i am having: i am trying to install a PostgreSQL ODBC
driver on a Windows XP professional machine. i installed the driver through
its set up file and it does show up in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ODBC/ODBCINST.INI/ODBC Drivers, however when i go
to Administrative Tools/Data Sources (ODBC) and i click on Add to add a new
data source it is not listed there. anybody know what the problem is?

Thanks.

Look for file odbcad.exe, if exists more then once, edit shortcut to
point to the other instance and tray again

Recently after logging on to Earthlink I try to access my Email from the
earthlink tool bar and get the following message: ODBC Microsoft access
driver login failed. The Microsoft jet database engine stopped the process
because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the
same time. I am the only user of my home computer. I have tried virus scan
and spyware scan with no problems detected. Any recomendations out there?
Thanks!
