While trying to upgrade from EnterpriseOne 8.11 SP1 to EnterpriseOne 9.0, we also wanted to upgrade our Deployment server to Windows Sever 2008 64bit.  So, that means that in order to runt he upgrade UBEs we needed to get the ODBC Connections onto the new server.  So, I exported the desired ODBC connections from the Windows Registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREODBCODBC.INI].  Then modified the file using a text editor so that when we imported them into our new 64bit server the ODBC Connections would be loaded into the 32bit ODBC Connection Manager.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREODBCODBC.INISystem - 811] was changed to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeODBCODBC.INISystem - 811]

The 32bit ODBC Connections can be managed using the ODBC Connection Manager that is found at C:WindowsSysWOW64odbcad32.exe

I also had to change the Driver specified for each entry:

"Driver"="C:\WINDOWS\system32\cwbodbc.dll" changed to "Driver"="C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cwbodbc.dll"
