Default SQLDriverConnect error (mapped drive)

Hi,

I have an application that uses an ODBC connection on a remote access file,
so I map the drive where the mdb file lives. When i do a SQLDriverConnect
with the connection string

"Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=x:\\somewhere\\db.mdb"

I get this error

[[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.-1023]

Just in case it matters, there is no problem accesing the mdb file if it is
on a local drive.

Does someone have hints?
Thanks
