64-bit OS? Create the DSN using C:\Windows\Syswow64\Odbcad32.exe.

Hello boss,

We have 32 bit OS

Did you create the connection to the system database as well?

That should not be required for MS SQL, if you use the server name in Accpac database setup.
Maybe it is a rights issue on the Win7 workstation, the user does not have rights to modify the registry and the ODBC DSN is then not created.
