Hi,

I do not see the Access MDB driver in the 'System DSN' of the ODBC Data
Source tab? how do get the drivers installed?

Thanks!

AiUI, there's only a 32-bit Jet driver in WS2003
x64, so only a 32-bit application will be able to
access Jet.

In order for IIS to use 32-bit drivers, you must
flip it from 64-bit to 32-bit.
