Il mio collega è scoppiato a ridere, mi ha chiamato e mi ha fatto leggere questo:

Il succo del discorso per i pigroni:
Basically Windows 7 64-bit, and presumably any other 64-bit version of Windows, has two ODBC administration tools: one for 64-bit ODBC connections and one for 32-bit ODBC connections. But they're both named the exact same thing: Odbcad32.exe! The only difference is where the executable is located.
- The 32-bit version is in %systemdrive%\Windows\SysWoW64
- The 64-bit version is in %systemdrive%\Windows\System32
If you just type in ODBC from the start menu, the only option that appears is the 64-bit one. Notice the extra screwed up pathing, with the 32-bit version being in a folder with 64 on it, and the 64-bit version being in the system 32 folder.
As for appearance, they look exactly alike:
Can you tell which is which? (Hint, they are in ascending order). The only I found to tell them apart is by looking at the drivers tab, which will only show 64-bit ones in that list. It will also only seemingly let you create 64-bit connections, except of course that I was able to easily mess up and make a 32-bit one that it couldn't edit. It also kept all of the older 32-bit ones I had when I upgrade from Win XP to 7 in the 64-bit area!
If you try to edit or delete those drivers from the 64-bit ODBC, you get the aforementioned error about install files not found. Is probably the most useless error ever because that's not the problem. It's purely an issue of the difference in 32-bit and 64-bit. Why Microsoft did not just make a single ODBC that could handle both, I don't know.
Il 64bits nella cartella 32 e il 32 bits nella cartella 64 ?
