Colin,
I asked google, because I didn't have any personal experience with this problem.
http://www.google.com/search?q=%22could+not+find+installable+ISAM%22+ODBC+Excel seemed to know an answer (maybe even a lot of them). Have a look yourself.
Hope this helps.
Kees
I am using Office 2003. When trying to merge data from Excel into Word I go through the merge screens in Word, when I try to connect through the ODBC data source I get a connection failed pop-up window with the message 'Could not fing installable ISAM'. Can anyone help.
Kind Regards
Colin
