ODBC driver for MS Access seems missing (Windows 64 bit)

Question

I am simply trying to connect a java application to MS Access in the Eclipse IDE. From what I have read and done on other computers I need to go to the ODBC Data source administrator and add user DSN MS Access Database. The problem I have is that I recieve an error indicating that the ODBC Driver is not installed.

Now I assumed it would be as simple as downloading and installing it like say MySQL ODBC driver, this doesnt seem to be the case. From what I have read it is somthing to do with 32 and 64 bit windows 7 o.s.

I would appreciate if someone could identify the problem.

Thanks in advance
