I'm trying to set up a DATA source of a 2007 MS Acces file called ques.accdb but I keep getting this message:

Connection verification failed for data source: ques
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not find file '(unknown)'.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not find file '(unknown)'.

The Access file is located in the wwwroot folder and I'm on Windows Vista.
Thanks so much,
Steve

"... please note that the drivers that come with CF8 do not support Access 2007. This is mentioned in the ColdFusion 8 Release Notes under #69495. The solution is nicely described right in the release notes. Download and install the Data Connectivity Components for Office 2007, set up a Windows ODBC connection, and use ColdFusion’s ODBC socket driver to connect to the Windows ODBC connection. ..."
