The 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine

Question

I have install the 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.12.0' component but still getting the same error.

Answer 1

There is no Jet 12, Jet was deprecated at version 4. What kind of database are you connecting to?

I think you must be referring to the ACE OLEDB Provider:

Answer 3

Hi,

Vista onwards microsoft has replaced Jet Oledb with Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB (more specifically for 64 bit environments). So to make your application work, build it with 64 bit (for 64 bit application) or with 32 bit (for 32 bit application running on 64 bit platform).

More details can be found on this url: http://ybbest.wordpress.com/2009/07/22/the-microsoft-ace-oledb-12-0-provider-is-not-registered-on-the-local-machine/

One more thing if the problem still persist than try to install office 2010 (i had faced some strange error onces which got solved after installing office 2010).

Do let us know your experince.
