try deleting it from the ODBC datasources control panel instead of using the Coldfusion admin
that is, if you're using windows :) -----Original Message----- From: Steven Dworman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 1:51 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: registry error I've never had this happen. Here goes... I went in to administrator to delete an ODBC source. Sounds simple I know, but I got this error: Unable to delete the registry entry in branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\***datasource here*** A problem was encountered trying to access the system registry. Error number 5 occurred - Access denied to registry key (probably due to security constraints). Obviously I checked permissions, and of course I have a user with administrator permissions logged in. I am able to delete other sources, and can create new ones. Also I tried to delete the key itself and got an error saying unable to delete. Any help is appreciated.
