Details:

ODBC database 8.4.2 not working on windows 7 32 bit.

When I click "Test setting" I get the following
error:
Could not connect to the server;
A connection attempt failed because the connected
party did not properly respond after a period of t
time.

I have tried disabling the firewall etc.

I suspect ODBC is not compatible with windows 7.

I have been able to set it up and got it working
on Vista, XP for
serveral years.
