database connection error

I am using the database connection VI's to write new information to Microsoft access database on my network. Once i updated to 2017, i started to get the ADO Error: 0x800A0E7A (see attachment for full error details). I read several other posts saying that the bitness of LabView and the database need to be the same and i checked this and both LabView and the access are running 32bit. I cannot find any other solutions online that make any sense to me. Any troubleshooting help is greatly appreciated.

Is your ODBC driver also 32  bit?

To expand on Mark’s question when you start up the ODBC Manager on a 64-bit Windows system you really start up the 64-bit version of it unless you explicitly browse to C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and start Odcbad32.exe in there to configure ODCB DSNs that can be used from 32-bit processes.
