you stumbled upon this issue, chances are you're (re)installing an old software client on a new-or-newly-updated Windows 7 64-bit system. That program - often an error 3151 odbc connection failed windows 7 archive/administrative/management service client or a similar home-made piece of software - uses a persistent ODBC connection to a local or remote DB via an ODBC DSN interface defined at user or system level using the Windows ODBC Administrator tool. The Problem The aforemetioned client can't find the ODBC Data Source entry, microsoft visual basic runtime error 3151 odbc connection failed therefore showing an error pop-up containing the following: ODBC Call Failed - Error 3151 Or, depending on the ODBC driver installed: ODBC Connection Failed - Error 3146 First thing we need to do is to check if the latest version of the Windows ODBC is properly installed and if a proper Data Source pointing to the DB we need to connect has been set: you can check both of these by opening the Windows Control Panel and navigate through Administrative Tools -> ODBC Data Source Administrator. If there's something missing there, fix that and check again, otherwise keep reading. The Analisys This specific issue is mostly related to how Windows 7 and above handles ODBC connections. Starting from Win7 the OS contains two different ODBC Data Source Administration tool executables: the 32-bit one and the 64-bit one. You can find them in the following folders, as explained in a note of this official KB article: ODBC Administrator (32-bit) c:\windows\sysWOW64\odbcad32.exe 1 c:\windows\sysWOW64\odbcad32.exe ODBC Administrator (64-bit) c

We are using a File DSN in the ODBC Administrator. Connection tests work fine there. In fact, we have a main form in the Access 2007 application that shows the data always correctly. The problem appears when we https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/dc8b91f0-d176-4ccb-9282-134fa17a2e9e/odbc-call-failed-error-3151?forum=accessdev execute a task that makes the following call: Dim dbs As Database Dim rstAppend As Recordset Set dbs = CurrentDb Set rstAppend = dbs.OpenRecordset(strAccessTable, dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges) OpenRecordset throws the error number 3151 and occurs randomly but it appears quite frequently. It's sporadic. When we don't get the error, the task works fine. It not happens always, mosty we're fine. When it happens it happens for all subsequent tasks tried. We have to close and reopen the Access database and pray to the good Lord that it works. up Recent PostsRecent Posts Popular TopicsPopular Topics Home Search Members Calendar Who's On Home » SQL Server 7,2000 » Administration » Getting run-time error 3151 ODBC connection... 21 http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic446169-5-1.aspx posts,Page 1 of 3123»»» Getting run-time error 3151 ODBC connection to ... failed Rate Topic Display Mode Topic Options Author Message pete.doylepete.doyle Posted Tuesday, January 22, 2008 5:12 PM Forum Newbie Group: General Forum Members Last Login: http://www.tech-archive.net/Archive/Access/microsoft.public.access.adp.sqlserver/2010-04/msg00037.html Monday, January 28, 2008 4:02 PM Points: 8, Visits: 17 Hi - hope someone can help.I've inherited the maintenance and support of a SQL Server 2000 database with an Access 2000 based front-end, running on an SBS error 3151 2003 server. All worked fine up until yesterday when trying to login using the usual username/password gives the above 3151 error. The line in the VB which generates this is: Set rstRoles = sfdb.OpenRecordset("Roles", dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)which is opening a simple table of roles to check which level the given user is at. Two things:1 I've noticed the transaction log is huge (12 GB) and had just run out of space to grow, but having freed error 3151 odbc up plenty more disk space, I still get the error2 I can open the database in admin mode and view the tables as normal. Just can't run the front end which the users need.I noticed one post which recommended running the linked tables utlility, which I've done but no difference.Any thoughts or suggestions welcome.:) Post #446169 Minaz AminMinaz Amin Posted Tuesday, January 22, 2008 11:22 PM Mr or Mrs. 500 Group: General Forum Members Last Login: Thursday, September 10, 2015 1:24 AM Points: 580, Visits: 1,750 Is it possible to post the SQL Server error message.

Thank you, I will try later your advice.

Second, if you are creating an User DSN, try creating a System DSN instead. Remove the old User DSN for testing this.
