I have just upgraded my machine to 64 bit and am having issues with 32 bit ODBC. I created the ODBC using odbcad32.exe under the SysWOW64 folder, but the DSN keeps disappearing and I have to set it up again for my applications. Any ideas?
 
Sorry about the typo in the subject, I meant to type DSN not DNS [bigsmile]
 
Are you creating them from an elevated run of odbcad32.exe? You are probably running afoul of registry virtualization.
