Re: Can't find ODBC driver in the admin list

Can't find?
You did not say which tab on the ODBC administrator. Are you looking at
the Drivers tab -- not a DSN tab. If you were to ADD a DSN (system, or
user, or file) would the Driver appear in a list to select from.

Finally (almost), if you were to use regedit and check
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INIT. There should be a list
of drivers.

If the install worked, the driver should be listed there. Are you sure
you have administrative privileges on the machine you are working so
that you are allowed to install software.
