Dear Sir,
Could not able to connect splunk 6 with Excel 2010 through ODBC.
Followed steps in windows environment:
1. Installed Splunk 6
2. Installed ODBC driver in the same system
3. From command prompt gone to C:\windows\System32\ if I execute odbcad32.exe and added the Splunk ODBC driver.
4. Try to connect with Excel 2010 get error "The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Appliaction".
5. But in C:\windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe could not find the list of Splunk Odbc driver.
Kindly help me, where I am making mistake
Thanks & Regards.
