Is there 64bit Jet support, so access databases can added in system database
under ODBC data source administrartor? I just purchased 2 8k $ systems that I
would hate to haft to send back, or down grade. Does any one have any idea?

From a post by Pascal Deliot:

It's important to understand which kind of DSN you have. On an x64 system,
you can create an ODBC connection(DSN) on the 32-bit side of the system or
on the 64-bit side of the system.

32-bit applications will only see ODBC connections created in the 32-bit
side, and 64-bits applications will only see ODBC connections from the
64-bit side. Each kind of application has is own registry.

To setup DSN for 32-bit application you must use:
%WINDIR%\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
and for 64-bit application you must use:
%WINDIR%\System32\odbcad32.exe
