  20. NOTE: If you are using Windows x64 edition then the ODBC connection you created will likely not appear in UPS. This is because UPS Worldship uses a 32-bit ODBC connection and by default when you create an ODBC connection in 64-bit windows it is only available to 64-bit applications. If you encounter this problem you need to create a 32-bit ODBC connection by going to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.EXE. Create your connection under this ODBC configuration utility and then it will be available for use within UPS.
