Trying to connet using OLE
hi.
i'm converting desktop application access ssce using powerbuilder ide. when try establish database connection using ole, message:
test connection failed because of error in initializing provider. database file has been created earlier version of sql server compact. please upgrade using sqlceengine.update() method.
i created database using latest version of sql server mgmt studio express , installed ssce 3.5. same messasge if try connect database using excel.
one odd thing after installed ssce 3.5, not see provider: "microsoft sql server compact ole db" in available providers list. found out registry entry missing ole db provider key. when inserted key see provider when set database connection profile error.
any suggesstions appreciated.
thanks,
john
hi,
when said latest version of sql management studio, sql 2005 or sql 2008 ctp etc... dont think general ole db access sql compact supported. because, sql compact's ole db provider not ole db compliant.
thanks
