Adolisp 64bit

I asked this question a couple of years ago, when I first had the problem, but Thought I might ask again.

 

Has anyone got Adolisp to connect to and Access Database *.mdb or *.accdb under Windows 7 64bit ? either directly or through an ODBC.

 

How ?

 

Thanks for any help.

Worked it out, Uninstall Office 2007, install http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/4/3/24375141-E08D-4803-AB0E-10F2E3A07AAA/AccessDatabaseEngi... then reinstall Office 2007.

 

For future reference.

Thanks .

 

That works well , But why should we unstall and re-install MSoffice althugh it is not mentioned at all in that link ?

 

Is it just to reconnect with MSoffice Applications  (not reasonable) ?

 

Regards

I don't know if its the case with all machines, but on my machine it would let me intall the 64 bit Engine, without uninstalling Office.

 

Having said that I uninstalled it, installed the Engine, and reinstalled Office and all of my previous settings remained. So all in all It wasn't a big problem.

 

glad it worked for you.

I can get you the answer to your question, currently we use AutoCAD 2012 - run a few LISP programs which populate data into MS ACCESS 2010 to generate reports.

 

Maybe you can help me with what we need.

 

We need a LISP writer who can take our old working programs and add some more code.

Our LISPs draw simple door frame and sidelights put a BOM on the elevation then send the DATA over to ACCESS.

I could help with that. I have done similar stuff.

 

email me @ greg@pldraft.com.au or post your questions here and I'll see if I have a solution.

 

One thing I did was create a list of information which resembled a Recordset, and move the data to and from the database with this. I also used the column names as a variable name, and then I could use READ and SET to create the variables.

 

Let me know if I can help.

Used the shareware above version 2.52.

 

Assuming that Access was loaded as 64bit. If you uninstall the 32bit installation then reinstall 64bit. Etc.
