Question : MAPI ODBC issue

i have a access database. In that database i'v a link to an outlook mail folder. when i click the link in access i see all the column and data.

Now .. i have added an ODBC connection with qlikview to that outlook link in access. i see the table.. even the preview of the data in outlook.

but on reload, i get this error:

SQL Error:[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] There are no MAPI clients installed on this machine.  Install a MAPI client (like Outlook) on this machine.
SQL Scriptline:
SQL State:S1000
SQL SELECT *
FROM TABLE

note: i use Qlikview to access outlook using odbc and mails are on exchange server

Answer : MAPI ODBC issue

With tthe laptop, are you using a VPN to connect to the network? vs at work, you have a different style connection?

or in one case is qlikview used in a desktop mode vs being used as a service (something in the system tray) on the other?

Again, I think the error message is mis-leading and just indicating a failure, but not for the reason it says.
