Well I've started to open a connection using OLEDB with Ace 12.0 which came as the only option when I connected Visual Studios to the Database. Now I've done a handful of reading and I'm looking to get the expertise of some of you!
I ran into a few errors and had to install Office 2007 engine and now get the error
OleDbException was unhandled
Could not find installable ISAM.
This error happens on opening the connection.
Obviously using Vb.net with VS 2010, Access is 64 bit running on Windows 7.
The programs I'm completing have small databases 1 accdb with a maximum of 20 tables and some as little as 4-5.
These all are single user programs that will save user information to store for either future use/editing.
1 or 2 of the programs need to run multiple calculations near the end of the users selections (combined multiple forms information to a sum)
I have started to realize ADO.net is a good solution to my problem I'm wondering what some of you think about this and maybe send me in the right direction so I can research and build the connection to save/update the information stored. I understand this might turn into what some of you feel comfortable with, speed is not an issue as to be honest these are fairly simple programs so it should be fast anyway!
thank you for your time :)
