CapturePoint won't run on Citrix XenApp 5 and Windows 2008 64 bit.

I am trying to get CapturePoint to run on XenApp 5 on Windows 2008.  I have configured the 32 bit ODBC connecter.  It will run OK when I log on as an administrator but when logged on as a Domain User I get a message:
Data source name not found and no default driver specified.  SQL State IM002.

When I look in Task Manager after several attempts to start the application I see the Administrator.exe file running but there was nothing in the GUI.

I suspect it is a permissions based problem, perhaps the right to create an object??

Have you created a machine based connector, or user based? It may be that you've configured as user based, as per the Administrator, and that's why the other users are reporting DSN not found.

I have configured System DSN and tested teh connection succesfully.
I have made some diagnostic changes with mixed results.
If I add Domain Users to the local Administrators group it will run OK for all users but it can't go into production like this.
I added the right to Create Global Objects and Log on as a Service to Domain users in the local machine policies and this did not fix it.
I have been looking at the logs but can't see anything that looks like a show stopper.  I ran the SysInternals Process Monitor but have found as usual it produces too much information even after filtering I can't see a show stopper.
I've noticed you've tagged it as Windows 2008 64bit and are using a 32bit ODBC, have you checked this Citrix article?

Yes, I have read that article and I have done the ODBC configuration at C:\WindowsSysWow64\odbcad32.exe  This is the 32bit ODBC that is used with 32bit applications.

The fact it works when Domain Users are added to the local machine Administrators Group suggest the problem relates to permissions on the local box.
