I've had a question and I'm not sure how to answer it. I've dug through bug reports and other "googling" for an answer.

I've done this and It works - I have 0 problem: http://www.northrivergeographic.com/qgis-accessing-personal-geodatabase

I received an email from from a gentleman who is running Windows Professional 64bit, QGIS 2.8.2 32 bit, Microsoft Office 32 bit - and he can't open Personal Geodatbases even after setting up an ODBC connection. Everything works up until the he opens it in QGIS - it doesn't see the Geometry. I'm assuming there is some weird and wild ODBC driver issue (mixing 32 and 64 bit somewhere). Is there a problem with QGIS 2.8.2 32 bit and personal geodatabases. I'm guessing the IT department had him keep everything 32 bit on his workstation. I see past reports but nothing current.

Thoughts? Angst?
