Hello Friends,

How can I install a DSN for Microsoft Access in Windows 7 32 bit?

I have a MacBook Pro which utilizing boot camp. I have windows 7 and I installed MS Access 2007 on my windows 7. All things were going all right. On the other hand when I attempt to add a DSN, it did not work. It Send me an error message and stating that DSN does not equal or match. There is an architecture disparity stuck between the driver and the application

I have also installed both access engine 2007 and 2010. At this time what is the solution?

Thank you.
