Problem with ODBC Windows Disappear

[lcky]

Hi

I am using MS Access 2003. I would like to setup table link to sqlServer 2005.
sql server and access 2003 is in on the same pc. I have setup ODBC Data source to this sqlServer database. I tested the setup and it work fine.

Then I go to access and action; File/Get External Data/Link Tables.

On lick Link Tables, It open link popup windows. But when I select ODBC Databases() from the Files of Types dropdown, windows disappeared.

It doesn't open odbc datasource windows.


Please could you help to solve this problem.


many thank

Hey Icky,

I am wrestling with the same issue. As I am new to this forum I am not 100% sure of how it operates, but it seems as if nobody has replied to your post.

I have found 2 references to this issue on other sites:
http://p2p.wrox.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=59626
http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread569925.html

Both these sites seem to indicate the problem is with Norton Anti-Virus' "Protection Center", specifically a setting called "the Office plugin". We are currently looking for this and hopefully it will solve the issue.
