Description:
Linking any tables or views using the MySQL 5.0.5 Beta driver from Access 2003 results in a Microsoft Jet Error and the tables fail to link. You can connect to the database and get a list of the tables, but when you try to link them the error appears.

MyODBC 5.0.5 Beta
MySQL 5.0.24a-community (locally on PC)
MS Access 2003 (11.6566.6568 SP2)

Exact Error: "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'om_a10a11bytepacketcountbypdsn_r30'. Make sure the object name exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.

Same setup running MyODBC 3.51.12 works fine.

How to repeat:
Link any table from Access 2003.

The exact issue reported here is a bug in the way underscores were handled in catalog functions. Fixed in svn rev663 which would be in the 5.00.08 release.
