Hi

I'm trying to add a new database into a new project, but i keep getting this
error message....:

http://www.linett.dk/vs2008_error.jpg

The database seems to get imported into the project, but the wizard that
starts up afterwards cannot generate a connection string. there is no way to
select the database and even though the test connection works okay, it will
not end the wizard...

My installation is Vista x64, Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and using C#. The
database is an access database. i've tried 200, 2003 and 2007 format of the
database and also tried to reinstall VS2008 and have rebooted my OS...

Can anybody help??

/Finn

The Access database may expect a password to open.

Can you write a very short piece of code to try to open the database? (as
short as possible) If this fails, post the short snippet of code here (you
don't have to show us your real password) so we can take a look.
