Error message: Could not find installable ISAM

JP Lacasse

I translate a web application from ASP to ASP.NET and I keep getting the following error: Could not find installable ISA

I used the same ConnectString ("DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("Database\Icsdata.mdb") & ";Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" to point to my Access Database

Any Suggestions why I am getting this error message

Would appreciate any help because I am stuck

Thanks -- J.P. Lacass

This indicates that connection string is malformed or non-sauble in ADO.NET.
See this page for an example of connection string used for Access.
