For some reason I cannot find my previous post so posting this question again.

 

 

 

Hello,

 

 

 

I am having a couple of issues with Excel 2007 and being able to retrieve

 

data in Excel 2007.

 

 

 

The first issue is that I cannot see a System DSN that was added through the

 

64 bit ODBC Administrator screen on Windows 7 in Excel 2007.

 

What I do is add the System DSN and when I open Excel 2007 and then click on

 

the Data tab and then click on From Other Sources then click on From

 

Microsoft Query the Data Source I added is not in the list.

 

So since the System DSN did not show up I removed it and added a User DSN

 

and did the same steps as above and when I open the table I do see that Data

 

Source.

 

 

 

This gets me to the next issue. When I click on that User DSN name and then

 

OK I get the following Microsoft Query error screen:

 

 

 

The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and

 

application

 

 

 

I then when I click OK I get this next Microsoft Query error screen:

 

 

 

Couldn't read this file

 

 

 

 

 

Since Office 2007 loads both 32 bit and 64 bit files shouldn't be able to

 

open the 64 bit Data Sources?

 

Just to let you know I am going against a 64 bit Oracle database.

 

 

 

Thanks
