Microsoft Access ODBC Driver for Vista 64 bit

Hi,

Does anyone know where/how I get an ODBC driver for Microsoft Access ODBC
Driver on Windows Vista 64 bit?

At the moment, when I open the ODBC Data Source Administrator and click on
the "Drivers" tab, only "SQL Server" is listed.

If anyone has got any ideas, I'd really appreciate them.

Thanks in advance,

Richard

Hi Soupbowl,

I found a workaround, which was to use a different ODBC tool.

The ODBC tool I was trying and having the problem was
C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe

The other one, C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe, has loads of database
drivers in it, so when I use this one, I was able to set up an ODBC
connection to my access database!

I think that one of these exe's is the 32 bit version and the other is the
64 bit version.

Please let me know how you get on.

Richard.
