We have an existing VB.Net 2017 app that has been running for years on Windows 7. It's using an access database.
The system was updated to Windows 10 and access to 2019. If fails on both a 32 bit and 64 bit office of access 2016 and 2019.
Error 3706 Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed
The app is 32 bit and must stay 32 bit.
Connection string first tried Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\ATX QBFILES\xxxxxx.mdb; which was working on Windows 7 then tried Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.15.0;Data Source=C:\ATX QBFILES\xxxxxx.mdb;
I am at a loss to understand exactly what it is missing.
Any ideas?
Thanks and Happy Holidays to all.
