А знаете ли вы, что имея 64-битную операционную систему и 32-битный Microsoft Office, вы не сможете простыми стандартными манипуляциями настроить ODBC источник данных (data source)? Например, на таблицы Excel — что, в общем-то, не такая уж и редкость.
Если вы пойдете как обычно в Панель управления / Администрирование / Источники данных ODBC (Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Data Sources (ODBC)), то вы не увидите перечня ODBC драйверов MS Office, даже если они были установлены. В лучшем случае могут затесаться какие-то 64-битные драйвера, установленные с какими-то другими оснастками:
А чтобы всё-таки поработать с 32-битными драйверами ODBC нужно запускать 32-битную версию утилиты управления ODBC (ODBC Data Source Administrator) вот такой командой:
%windir%SysWOW64odbcad32.exe
В общем-то, логично. Но почему не вывести обе утилиты в панели управления?! как это сделано в Windows 8.1, кстати.
Информация есть здесь:
Unable to create DSN for Microsoft Office System Driver on 64-bit versions of Windows
No ODBC Drivers available for Excel or Access in Windows 7 ?!
Hi,
I’ve tried everything I can think of and find online (see below) about this subject to no avail. Please help!
My Windows 8.1 Surface Pro 3 does not have the .xlsx ODBC driver, even when I look it up in %windir%SysWOW64odbcad32.exe. It only has the driver for .xls, which will eventually corrupt the .xls file used for the database after a few uses.
On the Drivers tab in the ODBC Data Source Administrator, it says: «To install new drivers, use the driver’s setup program.»
Where is this driver setup program and where can I download the .xlsx driver?
Also, I just reformatted and started over again, re-installing Office 365 (includes Access) and everything else. It’s a 64-bit Windows system and 32-bit Office.
Please advise! Thanks!

Hi,
I tried using the 32-bit Office System driver (ODBC Administrator tool in %windir%SysWOW64odbcad32.exe) to build an ODBC data source but the Excel driver for .xlsx files is missing. I looked in the regular System Administrator’s ODBC Data Source Administration
and even the 64-bit version — and they are also missing the current Excel driver.
I’m running a 64-bit Windows system and 32-bit Office. I don’t get any error messages, aside from the one I get eventually on the Excel 97-2003 file (.xls) that I’m currently using for my ODBC database (since that’s the only Excel driver available in the
all 3 available ODBC Administrator tools). The error message there says the file is corrupted and can’t be accessed and it happens after I’ve created the ODBC database and used it less than 10 times.
I’ve already tried the information in the following threads without any luck:

Can I install new ODBC drivers? The .xlsx compatible one? According to the ODBC Data Source Administrator tool (from the SysWOW64 folder, not the administrator tools), under the Drivers tab, it says «To install new drivers, use the driver’s setup program.»
Where is the driver’s setup program?
Please help, thanks!
