SOLUTION: ODBC Setup (odbc74-setup.exe) fails on Win98:
0x80070725 (-2147023067) Incompatible version of the RPC stub.

The solution is the same as in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article (Q320108):

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;320108

The problem occurs if an setup program installed the OLE Automation system files for Windows XP, instead of the redistributable versions that come with Microsoft Visual Studio or the Microsoft Platform SDK.
Unlike previous builds of Oleaut32.dll, the version for Windows XP cannot be used with earlier versions of the Windows operating system.


You have to take OLE version 2.40 from the /redist directory of VisualBasic 6.0 SP5 or download the files from
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;290887 :


http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60pro/Redist/sp5/WIN98Me/EN-US/VBRun60sp5.exe

Files needed:

Asycfilt.dll
Oleaut32.dll
Olepro32.dll
Stdole2.tlb

Create a setup program that installs these files _in any case_ OR
(brute force) replace the four files directly under DOS.
(Because Asycfilt.dll is in use by the system)

After that you should be able to execute the ODBC setup successfully.
