Are you running Win7 64bit. If so, launch c: windows SysWOW64 odbcsys32.exe and see if the drivers are there. I don t know why they are there on my system and not in the ODBC administrator in the Control Panel. Very irritating.

I can tell you where to get the drivers for ODBC in place.

Go: C - windows-sysWOW64 - odbcad32.exe

Double click and you can view and add the drivers you would have found under say XP for Access up to 2007

If you can connect or if it will run I have yet to find out.

By default the ODBC panel in Control Panel seems to be directed at the c -windows - system32 folder and thus will not allow the addition of additional ODBC drivers as it comes up with the error message.

I suspect it may be necessary to change code in such as ODBC connections for ASP to reflect the 64 bit folder link.

Hope that thakes you someway further

It is a bit tricky when one can not find his or her way out. Microsoft has changed its way of security for this settings and this is the reason why it s not straight away like in XP. This is the setting for Windows 7. It could be the same for Vista.

Solution :

Click on Start Control Panel Use the drop-down-menu Click on All Control Panel Items Administrative Tools Here you use the mouse curser to highlight

Data Sources ODBC and then you right-click on it. You click on Run as Administrator Click on Properties Security Edit Advanced Here you have to turn on or simply tick all boxes under Allow

except Special Permissions which should be left unchecked. Then confirm by Apply , OK Apply OK to close everything. Now you can click on the

Data Sources ODBC and under Drivers you will find everything there. Hurray..

Apparently you have misread the order of the steps you took to do this. I as well as another person on this forum found that the Properties selection was unavailable after run as Administrator and even after trying a variety of permutations the driver

list you described was unavailable.

We would much appreciate a revision of your instructions so that we could achieve your results.

I very much want to create an ODBC connection to an ACCESS 2007 DB from a VB 200 app running on 64 bit Windows 7. If anyone can help me accomplish this I would be very grateful.

Thanks,

I also have need to use the ACCESS 2007 ODBC connection using Sunbelt-plb PLBWIN application. I upgraded to Windows 7 and no where is the driver to be found. I also tried your proposed solution with no luck. Where you able to install the Access 2007

ODBC driver.

Answer

I think the answer is already here in this thread but it s not, imo, the post marked as Answer.

You need to use Windows 7 32-bit subsystem. In particular, you need to use the ODBC control panel here:

c: windows sysWOW64 odbcad32.exe

At least in my case, that version the 32 bit version of the cpl

did contain the Access 2003 in my case ODBC driver.

The 64 bit DLLs etc are in c: windows system32. The 32 bit subsystem so you can still run 32 bit apps on 64 bit Windows 7 is in c: windows sysWOW64.

I mean, that s very intuitive - right.

But I didn t post anything here until I could confirm that the 32 bit ODBC connection to Access was working giving me the db s data.

Well what I m trying to get to work goes through a bunch more complications: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mondrian/. Tomcat, mondrian, edits to config files to point things in the right direction, etc.

But given that it all now works, I d say that the ODBC connection to the Access db must be working I m getting its data in the web interface to Mondrian. Mondrian is an open-source sourceforge OLAP project. It s also bundled with other BI stuff at: www.pentaho.com

The default data store for Mondrian on Windows is Access.

So the key is to use c: windows sysWOW64 odbcad32.exe

Dear,

I followed the procedure as mentioned above. Unfortunately, without any luck.

Our database is MaxDb

I have a windows 7 machine with access 2007.

Thanks to the above procedure, I can select the SAP Db driver version 7.04.03.00 but each time i d like to create a system-dsn I receive following error:

This application uses CTL3D32.dll, which has not been correctly installed. CTL3D32.dll must be installed in the windows directory.

When I click on OK, I can continue with the procedure in order to create a datasource.

Nevertheless, once I launch access and open the ODBC-database, I obtain an empty tables box.

So, I started to search the internet for a solution.

Unfortunately, no solution found.

Downloading the corresponding dll-file in order to overwrite the existing one is something someone told me not to be done.

Conclusion: Is there anyone who can help me with this problem.

Info: I m no expert it s a small company without an ICT er ;- but i d like to install this one on my own.

Thanks

1 – Uninstall Microsoft Office 2007-2003

2 – Install these drivers 64bit version - Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable you can only install these if you uninstall Office 2007-2003 first

C06B8369-60DD-4B64-A44B-84B371EDE16D displaylang en

AccessDatabaseEngine_X64.exe

3 – You can Reinstall Office 2007-2003 if you want

4 – You are good to go with the 64 version ODBC drivers installed for Microsoft products

It s Working for me in my Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 DSN-ODBC connection

I have an even deeper question. I have an application that checks for the DSN when the login form loads if it doesn t exist it creates a SYSTEM DSN. On windows 7 64bit it doesn t work to create a SYSTEM DSN. I changed the code out of curiosity and it will

create a USER DSN. Here is my code: ODBC_ADD_DSN has a value of 1 as a constant and it creates a USER DSN. I have another constant that has a value of 4 and it creates a SYSTEM DSN. I thought the problem was in the way I create the connection but it works

for a USER DSN. If anybody knows why this is happening it would be great. CODE BELOW

Sub MakeDSN ByVal sDSN As String, ByVal sDriver As String, ByVal sDBFile As String, ByVal lAction As Long

Dim sAttributes As String

Dim sDBQ As String

Dim lngRet As Long

Dim hKey As Long

Dim regValue As String

Dim valueType As Long

query the Registry to check whether the DSN is already installed

open the key

If RegOpenKeyEx HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software ODBC ODBC.INI sDSN, 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, hKey 0 Then

zero means no error Retrieve value of DBQ key

regValue String 1024, 0

Allocate Variable Space

If RegQueryValueEx hKey, DBQ, 0, valueType, regValue, Len regValue 0 Then

zero means OK, so we can retrieve the value

If valueType REG_SZ Then

sDBQ Left regValue, InStr regValue, vbNullChar - 1

End If

close the key

RegCloseKey hKey

End If

Perform the action only if we re adding a DSN that doesn t exist

or removing and existing DSN

If sDBQ And lAction ODBC_ADD_DSN Or sDBQ And lAction ODBC_ADD_SYS_DSN Or sDBQ And lAction ODBC_REMOVE_DSN Then

check that the file actually exists

If Len Dir sDBFile 0 Then

MsgBox Database file doesn t exist., vbOKOnly vbCritical

Exit Sub

sAttributes DSN sDSN vbNullChar DBQ sDBFile vbNullChar

lngRet SQLConfigDataSource 0, lAction, sDriver, sAttributes

End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load

Dim sDriver As String

Dim sName As String

Dim sFile As String

sDriver Microsoft Access Driver . mdb

sName BuyHere

sFile C: Data data.mdb

MakeDSN sName, sDriver, sFile, ODBC_ADD_DSN

hi dear, i am also facing the same problem in connecting my jsp application with mc access on window 7 64bit but now i have a solution for it just follow the steps:

1. open c drive- windows- syswow64

2.then run odbcad32.exe present in syswow64 folder

3. after opening it you can add your ms access database that you already made using ms access for ex. database.mdb

hope you knw how to add database and then just click ok

4 after adding it just close it and if u want to check it just go to control panel and check database source in addminstr tools where now, u ll find your ms access database

5. if you again facing problem just write it there

hope your problem will b solve

This link helped me. I made a shortcut on the desktop with C: windows SysWOW64 odbcsys32.exe as the target. Then, instead of going through Administrative Tools to ODBC item, I just launch it from the desktop. Voila. The missing Access ODBC choice

is there under both user and system DSN. It seems they didn t bother to make 64-bit drivers for these in Windows 7, which is why they don t show up when you go the normal route to the ODBC menu. Not very professionalI wonder if they know how many peoples

lives they have made miserable troubleshooting this.

Thanks very much, this fix worked. As the odbc admin console runs normally in x64, hence if you run in a x32 mode you get options of all the x32 software e.g. access, excel etc.

I know this is dated, but the order is correct. After you right-click and choose Run as Administrator, right-click again on the same icon and choose properties -- you can now alter the permissions of the program as the poster suggested.

Help - I ve tried all seemingly appropriate fixes presented here in this thread; however, I still can t get out of the gate.

I m on Vista Home Prem - The app i m trying to use was dev d before Vista but it s functionality feels intuitive enough and is simple enough as to, seemingly, not preclude it s use on any Win OS.

I have no DB progrmng experience but I have a gut feeling that there is a solution.

I would be most appreciative of anyone taking a few mins to look at the exception below and maybe offer a suggestionor telling me in no uncertain terms that this will never work and to stop trying to pound a square peg into a round hole.

Thanks:

I hit start/administrative tools/data sources odcb and right mouse clicked on it and selected properties. I choose the shortcut tab and I changed the pointer in the target field to c: windows sysWOW64 odbcad32.exe and start in field to c: windows sysWOW64.

Works perfectly now.

I spent half a day trying to find this answer, and I didn t realize that some other people had posted the same answer, but they just kept saying use odbcad32, like I was supposed to know what that meant. Thank you so much for spelling it out. Your post

ended a two-day headache for me.

Everyone is asking the same question, but no one from Microsoft has given a good answer. I m the other people have started the c: windows sysWOW64 odbcad32.exe just as I did; however, there is only one drive and not the right one. It tells you to use

the driver installation tool, but I can t find it. My guess is the only provide the one driver for the version of windows 7 I have unless you purchase the Office package. There is a reason everyone asks the same question without a plausible answer.

Same turmoil,

My solution was two days of reading every post I could to finally realize that a lot of misdirection is going on in this thread. Using the

c: windows sysWOW64 odbcad32.exe path as often mentioned gives no joy.

My scenario:

Using Windows 8.1, running Access 2013 and trying to connect to a web based

.accdb file.

Already have the IIS configured Internet Information Services. You may need to turn that on too through the Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Programs and Features

Neither the 32-bit or 64-bit managers under control panel have the correct driver you see only drivers for the older extension. mdb.

Solution, download:

Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable

When you install this engine, you will then see the mdb. accdb driver listed in both of the ODBC managers.

Search for this and it will pop up as a 32 and 64 bit version. I downloaded both. Not sure but you may only need the 32 bit drivers for ACCESS

As I thought everything on my new laptop was 64 bit, I loaded the 64 bit version first. Turns out, Access could use the 64 bit driver to connect to the web but all that came back were the headers and table structure, no data so after searching for errors

in code I had a hmmm moment.

First you have to delete those 64 bit connections then DELETE the 64bit MS Access DB Engine 2010 ReDist from your program files and then load the 32 bit version.

When I recreated the connections using 32 bit drivers, data loaded.

Knowing what I know now, I would have loaded the 32 bit to start with.

Apparently if everything in the stream is not 64bit, like the server the 64 bit drivers will not work completely.

Hope this helps someone.
