I'm trying to add Microsoft Access (.mdb) to the system dsn, under the ODBC
Administrator in a new computer running Vista. We purchased them and
installed Microsoft Office 2007. We have a database that runs off Microsoft
Access, and we NEED to set this up under the system dsn, in order to switch
it over to the new computer. We've tried re-installing the Microsoft Office
software, but it did nothing new. The software seems to be working fine, we
just don't have that option in the system dsn. Any advice on how we can have
that option in the system dsn list?

Sorry I do not have a reply but I have a similar problem

I have tried to create a System DSN and a User DSN on my Vista Lapto
for an MS Access database I was using for a back end for a simpl
intranet system which uses Coldfusion as the front end

My intranet system worked fine on XP machines but when I copied th
software and database to my Vista laptop the Coldfsusion datasourc
continued to work although it pointed to an ODBC link that did not exis
whilst the ODBC links I created in Vista did not work

I thought it may have been a Coldfusion/Vista issue but your issu
suggests it is something to do with how Vista handles ODBC links i
