Rubyinstaller users - Jul 2004 - ODBC not working for RC3

Chris (and others),

I am on Win XP (Home) using ruby-1.8.2-14_rc3 to connect to MS-Access 2002 
using DBD/ODBC. And I get errors for this code snippet:

#----------------------------------------------------------
require ''dbi''
puts VERSION
mdb_file="C:/Northwind.mdb"
conn_str="DBI:ODBC:driver=Microsoft Access Driver
(*.mdb);dbq=#{mdb_file}"
DBI.connect(conn_str) {|dbh|    puts dbh.tables }

__END__
#--------------------------------------------------------
1.8.2
C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/DBD/ODBC/ODBC.rb:86:in `initialize'':
wrong number of arguments (0 for 1) (ArgumentError)
 from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/DBD/ODBC/ODBC.rb:86:in `new''
 from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/DBD/ODBC/ODBC.rb:86:in `connect''
 from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi/dbi.rb:584:in `connect''
 from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi/dbi.rb:384:in `connect''
 from E:/MrMat/tst_dbi_odbc.rb:5


This error goes away if I copy odbc.so from 1.8.1_rc13 to the new install.
Don''t know if this is a bug or something that I have done wrong.

There shouldn''t be anything you can do wrong.

My development machine is broken and I''m currently restoring it (total
windows reinstall), so I can''t check this out right away. I''ll
take a look
as soon as I can.
