This connection OpenSQLConnection[ JDBC["Microsoft Access(ODBC)", FileNameJoin[{NotebookDirectory[], "MyAccessDatabase.mdb"}]], "Catalog" -> Automatic, "Description" -> None, "Password" -> None, "Name" -> "manualA", "ReadOnly" -> True, "RelativePath" -> False, "UseConnectionPool" -> False, "Username" -> None, "Version" -> 2.`] works right in my PC with Windows Vista 32 bits and my old laptop with Windows XP. But the problem crops up when I try it in my new laptop with Windows 7 64 bits, there is a connection failure and next message is shown =93JDBC::error: [Microsoft] [ODBC Drivers Manager] Database source name not found and no default driver specified=94 (free translation from spanish) I get the same result (error and message) trying the connection using the GUI with OpenSQLConnection[]. Access 2003 is installed in all the systems. Import["MyAccessDatabase.mdb",=85] works, but only with tables and I need to make a lot of SQL queries. Any suggestions?
