Обсуждение: How to use a 32bits odbc driver on a 64bits computer ?
Hello,
I would like to enable a 32 bits program to communicate with my psql database on a 64bits PC via a .dsn file. Problem is, when I try to create the dsn file, I've only access to 64bits ODBC drivers.
I tried to uninstall and install again 32bits ODBC drivers available here https://www.postgresql.org/ftp/odbc/versions/msi/. I've tried several versions (psqlodbc_09_05_0300, psqlodbc_09_05_0300-x86,...).
How can I force my computer to use the 32bits version instead of 64bits ?
Or is there any driver only for 32bits ?
I've already managed to open the communication with same program and database on other computers; among them a 64 bits computer which let me choose in "control panel->administrative Tools->ODBC data source administrator 32 bits "or "->ODBC data source administrator 64 bits".
Thank you in advance for your help,
Catherine

And don't forget, you can't see the installed 32 bit odbc drivers on a 64 bit machine unless you run the 32 bit viewer at:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
