VC++ CLI 2010 Data Source Configuration Wizard is Empty

Question

Hi.

Long time ago in a galaxy ...

I've created Windows Forms App in VC++ 2008 that uses OLE DB connection to MS Access database. Recently I wanted to upgrade this app to VC 2010 and after conversion it says that my dataset is not a member of my namespace. I tried to connect it again but when i click Add New Data Source the Data Source Configuration Wizard shows no types to select, only the Hide System Assemblies is checked. The same happenes when I open new project - I can't connect to any type of database. If I try to add new dataset to project in 'typed' it says 'no datasets in project'. This happened on 2 virtual machines (XP Prof SP 3 VS 2010 SP 1 and W7 HP VS 2010 SP 1) and on real one XP Prof SP 3 VS 2010 SP 1)

At the same time in VC# everything works fine. Am I missing something ?

Thanks for reply.

It seems VS 2010 isn't designed for VC++ :(
