Unhandled win32 exception occurred in odbcad32.exe

746324Jan 13 2010 — edited May 22 2010
I am trying to setup ODBC connection from a Windows Server 2003 box to an external Oracle 9i database. The vendor who manages the 9i database suggested that I could use the Oracle 10.2 client and ODBC drivers on my Windows box. So I installed the Oracle 10.2 Client (Run Time) and ODBC Driver (10.2.0.2). Both installed successfully. However, when I try to add a new System DSN (from Microsoft ODBC Administrator) using the "Oracle in Home1" ODBC driver, I get an error ("An unhandled win32 exception occurred in odbcad32.exe.").

I've tried uninstalling the ODBC driver and reinstalling, but to no avail. Does anybody have any suggestions on what might be happening or what I should do to fix the problem?
