odbc issue w/ access - El Forum - 10-07-2008

I've already written it up in this post: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/93160/ The short version is that I'm trying to connect to MS Access. I can tell that it’s using CI_DB_odbc_driver->db_connect() to connect to the db, which is located in system/database/drivers/odbc/odbc_driver.php. For whatever reason, the $this object in there doesn’t seem to have any of the settings from database.php in it, so I have to re-add them there to get it to work. I also have to add $this->db->dbdriver = "odbc"; to my controller right after the $this->load->database(); call.
