Local data access problem with ODBC

I have been unsuccessful in trying to access the tables in a Firebird database that resides on my local machine, using a Firebird ODBC connection & running XP SP2. I am using CR 2008. My data source in admin tools tells me the connection is OK, but when I try to use this source in CR, I only get an option to add a command but no tables are shown.

This database is a copy of the live database on a server; I use the server datasource successfully daily. The dll file is stored locally and is the same for both datasource definitions.

Is there some other component that I need for the local connection?
