I have windows vista and MS Access 2007. I have successfuly created datasources to SQL server but get this error when submitting a datasource to an Access database.

"Unable to update the NT registry.
Variable DRIVERPATH is undefined."

Any idea how to get this right?

After hours of frustration, I've discovered that the problem is with 64 bit Coldfusion, not 64 bit Vista. 64 bit Coldfusion does not support the Access drivers.

Reinstall 32 bit Coldfusion on your 64 bit Vista and then you will have the "Microsoft Access with Unicode" driver.

Hallelujah!

64-bit OS? if so, try the "access for unicode" driver instead.

Yes, I have 64 bit. I am using the SQL driver at the Admin menu. I do not see the "access for unicode" driver listed. Where do I find it?
