Install the ODBC Data Adapter on the same Windows system where you plan to create ODBC DSNs. For information on using ODBC Reporting Adapter, see the Trillium Reporting Adapter for Excel User’s Guide.
It is not a requirement that the repository server or the Control Center be installed in the same system where you will install ODBC Reporting Data Adapter and create the DSN. The instance of Excel you use must reside on the same system on which you create the DSN.
After you install the 32-bit ODBC adapter, you must also configure the ODBC DSN. See Configuring ODBC DSN .
