visual studio 2005 + access 2005 oledb connection fails

4 New Member
Hello everyone, I'm trying to make a OLEDB-connection between VB.Net (Visuel Studio 2005) and an Access-2003 database. This works smoothly and without a single problem on a Windows XP desktop computer, but this connection fails upon calling the connection.open () instruction on a (new) laptop computer which has Vista Home Premium as os. I've installed the service pack voor Visual Studio and the service pack voor Vista but still without success. Can anybody tell me what needs to be installed to get the problem solved ?

the error message is something like disk or network error code -2147467259
System Data.Oledb.Oled bException

Can anybody help me ? Thanks !

Have you checked for connection string differences?

Hi, I'm a bit confused ... when would I rather write an database application using MS Access and Visual Basic and when (and why) would I rather write it using Visual Studio .Net? Is it as easy in Visual Studio to create reports and labels as it's in Access?` The advantage of VS.net is that not every user needs Access, right? And that would eliminate the Access version problem as well I guess.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
