I used to be able to connect to my local mySQL Database via Microsoft Access by choosing "Open > ODBC" From Access and selecting my ODBC MySQL Database from the list..

However, Whenever I try this in Windows 2003 with SP1, Access just crashes.. I've tried this on 2 systems - It's definately a win2003 SP1 Problem....

Anyone know a way around it, other than uninstalling SP1?

Thanx!

I'm having difficulty connection to mySQL through a straight connection string with 2003. I would like to solve it so I can build my new test environment.
