OLEdb problem

EMW
I use the following function to read an Excel worksheet into a dataset:

Public Function GetDataFromExce l(ByVal FileName As String, ByVal ds As
DataSet) As Boolean
Try
Dim strConn As String = "Provider=Micro soft.Jet.OLEDB. 4.0; Data
Source=" & FileName & "; Extended Properties=Exce l 8.0;"
Dim objConn As New System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbConnect ion(strConn)
objConn.Open()
' Create objects ready to grab data
Dim objCmd As New System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbCommand ("SELECT * FROM
[sheet1$]", objConn)
Dim objDA As New System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbDataAda pter
objDA.SelectCom mand = objCmd
' Fill DataSet
objDA.Fill(ds)
' Clean up and return
objConn.Close()
Return True
Catch ex As Exception
lblHeading.Text = ex.ToString
Return False
End Try
End Function

When I run my ASPX on my own PC it runs fine and does what it must do.

When I put the page on the server I get this message:

System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbExcepti on: Unspecified error at
System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbConnect ion.ProcessResu lts(Int32 hr) at
System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbConnect ion.InitializeP rovider() at
System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbConnect ion.Open() at
FSsite.FSsite.W ebFormSubmit.Ge tDataFromExcel( String FileName, DataSet ds)

Now I copied to System.Data.Ole Db.dll file to the BIN folder at the IIS
webserver, but is there anything else I should do?
Can anyone explain to me what this means, it's a little vage error message?

thanks,
Eric

Hi All, I am new to using the Access DB and I need some help if someone is able to give it to me. What I want to do is get the names of the columns of certain tables. Not the data in the table but the table column names. I've seen other posts that suggest using the SQL command DESCRIBE but I can't get it to work for some reason. Other posts have code samples but they're written in VB which I am not familiar with. I

I need the code to update the database when Save is clicked and a text field has changed. This should be very easy since I used Microsoft's wizards for the OleDBAdapter and OleDBConnection, and DataSet; and all I'm doing is showing one record in text fields, allowing the user to modify the text fields, and then updating the database again when the user clicks the Save button. The fields already show the correct data record since I have...

I have a simple webservice that performs a SELECT query against a database, and then an INSERT statement on the same database/table. The problem arises at the time when we create the second OleDB connection object and attempt to Open() it. The connection string is exactly the same for both connection objects. Another intersting thing is that this code works fine when it is used in a Windows Form project. The code snippet: try { //...
