RE: Vista ODBC/DSN errors connecting to windows 2000 server

I have the same problem. I believe it is because I'm using Vista 64-bit and
trying to add ODBC sources in a 64-bit environment. Is there a snap-in
console in which I can add 32-bit ODBC connections so they show up in my
32-bit applications for usage?

I am using a 32-bit application (Frontrange HEAT) and through that
application I was able to create an ODBC to a SQL 2000 Server. The ODBC
connection does not show up however in the Administrative Tools > Data
Sources (ODBC). Again, I'm sure this is because I'm in the 64-bit ODBC tool
when I'm sure it would show in a 32-bit environment of it.

Any advice would be appreciated.
