How can ODBC 64-bit on Windows 2008R2 - I tell if it's 32-bit or 64-bit

Hi, how do I know if the SQL Native client uses a connection to ODBC 64-bit?

I think I installed SQL Natvie 64-bit Client to connect to our SQL Server 2005 SP2 DB external and I can see the shortcut in the Data Source (ODBC) in administrative tools is pointing to "system32\odbcad32.exe".  I noticed an article on the use of a 32-bit ODBC to update manager and that it points to the same executable so I think that it is the 32-bit ODBC and not the 64 bit version?

How will I know?

Thank you

It is 64-bit. Windows 2008 R2 is 64-bit, so the shortcut you see points to ODBC 64-bit. The ODBC 32-bit exe is located under the SYSWOW file on your server windows 2008 R2 (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe). To vCenter 4.1 you need a 64-bit ODBC connection, so you're on the right track.
