The ODBDADM32.exe 3.0+ has caused numerous problems with me as well. I have seen it working on some machines after much mucking around with dlls, but the easiest solution is just to reinstall the 2.5x version.

The problem arises when you install Office97 (and some other MS software like Visual Foxpro5.x, MS SQL Server, Access 3.x(?)) Ususally it can be avoided by unchecking ODBC stuff in the install for these apps.
