Yes, DBA/EVO is running fine.

But when I am trying to add a DSN (ODBC) I can not see the Pervasive Drivers.

I installed the Pervasive 10 client.

Any ideas?

If it is 64 bit then there are no 64 ODBC drivers. You will need to use the 32 bit drivers. Not sure about how to get them for the client. Perhaps ditching the 64 bit client install and using the 32 bit client instead?

Actually, there is a trick to make it work

if you go to control panel/Administrator Tools/ODBC it will call the 64 Bit Version

You have to open the 32 Bit version:

C:Wndows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe

ofcourse if you have installed pervasive 32

Anyway, that is how I made it works.

Thanks!!!!

Can someone help me out here? I have Win7 64bit. When I try to install the Pervasive client from \clients\win nothing happens...

I can't change the compatibility mode because it's on a network drive.

You can't download it and install as admin?

Well I'm not sure what was happening, but something must have been sticking. While working on something else, all of a sudden I got the "Setup is analyzing..." and it installed. I did get an error about it being a 16 bit application, but it works, and Evo works after a few false starts as well.
