ODBC Driver Manager - data source name not found and no default driver specified?
Hello,
I have some sort of application that is linked to a database in the same folder. I am pretty clueless technically however there is a batch file in the folder which I have to double click to Run, then the program pops up and off I go.
However I now have a problem. I am trying to put the application/program/whatever onto a 64-bit of Windows. Whenever I try running it, I get the following error message:
Database access fails!
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
Does anybody have any clue as to what is causing this and how I could fix it?
Many thanks

1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoUSB mouse not working - help please?
I plugged it into the USB port, it claimed to have installed all the drivers but just doesn't work. The light on the bottom of the mouse is on and it appears to be powered ok (and in fact it works for a couple of seconds towards the end of the driver installation) but after that it just goes dead on me.
I'm using XP - any ideas?
6 AnswersOther - Hardware1 decade agoFP1 question - roots of quadratics?
I've done the question but the answer booklet says I'm wrong. This is starting to frustrate me, considering I have done the question three times and got the same answer.
The quadratic equation 2x² - x + 4 = 0 has roots A and B.
a) Write down the values of A + B and A*B
b) Show that 1/A + 1/B = 1/4
c) Find a quadratic equation with integer coefficients such that the roots of the equations are 4/A and 4/B.
I got:
a) A + B = 1/2, AB = 2 (the answer booklet agrees with this)
b) 1/A + 1/B = (A+B)/AB
= (1/2)/2 = 1/4
c) 4/A + 4/B = 1, therefore sum of the roots = 1
4/a * 4/b = 16/ab = 8, therefore product of the roots = 8
therefore the equation is x² - 1 + 8 = 0
However, the book says the answer is x² - 6x + 12 = 0. Have I made a mistake with my working?
Thank you.
