P.S thanks to everyone that helped me at my original thread: in VS click add data source, follow the wizard and enjoy! :) NOTE: this DOES work for office 2010 even though it is for 2007 office, dont ask me why it just does :)Ģ. However if, like me, that doesnt work for you, try the following method: Trying to connect to an Access database in visual studio but keep getting this error? Please reply to this thread if it worked for you so i can make this a full "compatibility list".however for whatever reason (even though its made for 64-bit office) this did not work on my machine so i was forced NOTE: i have found hundreds of threads on this error, yet they all seem to suggest using the 'Microsoft access database engine'.
