Hi NG !
I have the problem, that my access to a MS Access 2000 database does not
work. I allways get the Exception System.InvalidOperationException with
the recommandation to install a MDAC version 2.6 or later....but I have
the newest 2.8 MDAC version installed...I did not find good informations
about this problem....Please help me.
 
Hi,

IIRC you posted this already.

Is this still with the connection or you have another issue?

Yes you are right, but all my efforts to solve this problems didn't
work. So I hoped somebody else knows other informations and can give me
some impacts.
Do you have no ideas what I can do else ?

Regards and sorry for repeating my questions

PS: It is right, that I should use the OleDBConnection for connecting MS
Access DB's and SQLConnection for connecting MS SQL Server ?

Thanks

Glad it worked, and unless you have a compelling reason to do otherwise, you
want to use the specific providers - in this case, Sqlclient for SqlServer
(and OleDb for access although OleDb isn't a specific provider for Access
only)
