Connect PHP to Access database error

[adamskiii]

I am having problems connecting my PHP to an Access database. Now me code
worked fine at school but when I try it at home I get this error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message '<b>Source:</b>
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers<br/><b>Description:</b>
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path.
Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected
to the server on which the file resides.' in C:\xampp\htdocs\parts.php:15
Stack trace: #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\parts.php(15):
com->Open('DRIVER={Microso...') #1 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\parts.php
on line 15


Is there a way to resolve this? I access 2003 installed on my computer. Do I
need to download a driver for access? If so where can I find it?

Thank You

Hi,
open control panel and try to make a new odbc connection to your access
database, will it work? then check this page for proper connection string:
