Problem with connection. Please help!! URGENT work

I am trying to connect to a PARADOX .db (vs2005). I am using an OLEDB
connection. This is the connection string I am using:

Provider=Micros oft.Jet.OLEDB.4 .0; Data Source="C:\Docu ments and
Settings\User\D esktop\help.db" ;Extended
Properties=Para dox 5.x

I receive as an answer the following: "Could not find installable ISAM"
How do I fix it? What am I missing? I need to connect to the db
urgently. Thank you very
much in advance.

Pamela

PS.
I have mdac installed and can connect fine to access, excel, sql
server, etc.
For any trial, a samble of paradox DB can be download - for instance -
from here

You might need to go back to your VS2005 install and install the Paradox
drivers. They may not install by default.

What version of Paradox are you using?

I have been given some files and I have to move data to SQL server. I
am not sure about the version.

What drivers are you talking about and where are them? Do you mean that
in the VS2005 install there is an option to install Paradox drivers?

Any help is much apprecciated. I tried registering Mspbde40.dll as
suggested on some post, but nothing changes !?!?

This is going to sound stupid, but I can't get the help to work in the Visual Studio .NET. I've tried using the help that comes with Studio and also from the MSDN. All I get is a generic page-not- found kinda error. Any one else hit this? Tom
