I have a situation now where ODBC trace on an XP machine with MDac 2.8
reports all the embedded select statements but where the exact same app
running on a Vista machine (no mdac installed as I can't find one relevant
to Vista) does not excho ANY of the select statements at all.

It sounds as if there is no ODBC driver manager on the Vista machine.
Since I don't use Vista, I can't really help ... but is there
something like "Control Panel" in Vista where you can create an ODBC
data source? How are you turning on ODBC trace? Is there an
ODBC32.DLL on the Vista machine?

Are you really using ODBC here? Depending on the application and the
database involved, it may be bypassing the ODBC driver entirely.
Microsoft, AFAIK, has threatened to phase out support for ODBC at
some point in favor of OLEDB...maybe this is it?
