ODBC source dialog fails to load after attempt to link database devildas 07.06.2006 16:59:02 When linking to external database / table...I get the normal "Look in" dialog box. I go all the way to the bottom, choosing ODBC databases. Normally, it should bring up a new ODBC dialog allowing me to select my already established and working System DSN SQL connections. This dialog box never comes up. I cannot select the existing ODBC connection. Has anyone ever seen this behavior. MDAC version is 2.8. All service packs are installed on XP Pro and Office 2003 Pro. Thanks

RE: ODBC source dialog fails to load after attempt to link database GirlFriday 14.08.2006 11:10:01 Problem is Norton Internet Security. To Fix, do the following: 1. Start Norton AntiVirus. 2. Click Options, and then click Miscellaneous. 3. Under How to keep Microsoft Office documents protected, click to clear the Enable Office Plug-in check box, and then click OK. 4. Restart the computer.
