I just purchased VS 2010 Professional. I was using 2010 Express and i used to use Crystal Reports 9 to create my reports. My problem is that CR9 does not allow me to connect to the new MS Access database (accdb). It only lets me connect to .mdb. I used to use .mdb but i have upgraded to MS Office 2010.

i want to connect to a .accdb access database. the connection string is:
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:myFoldermyAccess2010file.accdb;Persist Security Info=False;
so if i want to make sure this works on any computer, should i just add the reference to:
Microsoft Office 14.0 Access Database Engine Object Library
is this all i need to do?
I am using Server Explorer in VS2010 to connect to an Access 2007 .accdb database. I started getting 'No error message available, result code:E_UNEXPECTED (0x8000FFFF). However, my program runs from Debug and accesses the data.My connection string is Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:MypathDatabase1.accdb. I exited my project and created a new project and tried to add a connection. I could not connect to Access 2007 or Access 2003 databases (.mdb).I had to exit VS2010 and start it again before it started working again.

View 4 RepliesThe database is a different file.
View 2 RepliesA. A Visual Basic program is developed to read a text file to Access 2003 database using the Data Access Objects (DAO). The following is the DAO command:
Set db = DAO.DBEngine(0).OpenDatabase("C:TempMyAccess2003.mdb")
B. The office Access 2003 database (*.mdb) is going to be upgraded to Access 2007 database (*.accdb).
C. The Visual Basic program is revised to read the same text file to Access 2007 database using the same Data Access Objects (DAO), The following is the DAO command:
Set db = DAO.DBEngine(0).OpenDatabase("C:TempMyAccess2007.accdb")
D. The following error message occurs when the revised Visual Basic program is executed:
"Run-time error '3343': Unrecognized database format"
I had previously used VB6; I am now using VS2008; What is the best manner to now open the database using the VB code? The code works with the Access 2003 database.
I've recently made another question about connecting to MS-ACCESS database with .NET in C# or VB.NET. It worked just as intended with MDB, but with accdb it caused an exception in
conn.Open();which follows:
Is there another way to do this? My original intention (like stated in the original question) is gathering some (actually, a lot of) fields.

View 4 RepliesI want to connect to a mdb file but i have never did that before. i don't know where to start. heard something about ado.net and some other things.
the file is a 2003 access file if i am not mistaken. and it is shared on network. so multiple users (not too many, max 50) will use it at same time. what is the best connection to use? i have to mention that i don't want to use data controls. i want to use sql commands to fetch data and manipulate data on the form controls myself. i know there are various connection ways like strings and adapters. not sure which one is better.
it's just for a program registration. i would store all of the registration codes in the access database, then export it to XML, then upload it to my web host. I would then somehow connect it to my Visual Basics login form (Which I have already made). If this can't be done, having them register through the form and having all the allowed codes on the internet (So i can easily edit them)!

View 2 RepliesI am writing a very simple program that connects to a accdb file (Microsoft Access 2007 file) and returns some results in a datagridview. Everything is fine. Now because we have to deploy this program in many computers i publish it so everyone we want can install it and have updates. What i wanted to do is to make the database file part of the program which i did it by adding it to the resources. My problem is that i do not know what connection string to enter in order to access it in my resources.
My previous connectionstring before i deploy it was this
ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:l.accdb;Persist Security Info=True
What should i change in the data source in order to access the same file in my resources?
