I wrote an Access database several years ago the backend of which is a MySQL database. Several other people use this db. Its tables automatically connect with MySQL via an odbc connector (32bit) 5.1.13. This Access db still runs successfully on my desktop computer, but suddenly last week it would not load because of odbc failure. I used the program in the morning--in the afternoon I again tried to open it and received the error msg. Another Access db that uses MySQL and the same connector driver also fails on this computer (different MySQL db). So, obviously, the odbc connector was at fault. Tried to reinstall the driver and received the following error: Error 1918:Error installing ODBC driver MySQL 5.1 Driver, ODBC error 13. The setup routines for that driver could not be loaded due to system error code 126: The specified module could not be found. (C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\Connector ODBC 5.1\myodbc5S.dll). Verify that the file MySQL\Connector ODBC 5.1 Driver exists and that you can access it. I researched the problem and tried various fixes, none of which worked. In desperation, I have now tried a Reset of Windows. Efforts to install the driver result in the same error message so I have to abort.
To be clear, the problem exists only on my laptop--my desktop and other users have no problem.
