MS Access - SQL Server ODBC Error

I have an MS Acccess front end to SQL Server 2008R2.
All DSN configurations are set correctly. But I still get an error message when trying to open the linked tables.
Error message is "ODBC--connection to 'DB010' failed."
Any thoughts?

You get this on "all" of the linked tables?
Do these tables all have a designated Primary Keys?

Yes - all tables. Some tables have primary keys.

Thanks - you made me think why I have two ODBC configurations on Windows 7 PC. I was configuring 64 bit, but when I configured 32 bit, this worked like a charm.
They need to have the 64-bit odbc admin thing flash "64-bit" in big red letters
