VB6 - Access 2003 Password Error

Question
0

Sign in to vote
Hi

I have a VB6 application that connects to MS Access 2003 DB using ADODB . We have migrated to Windows 7 (64 bit) from XP and now I am getting the Error 3031 - Password Not Valid. A sample of the connection code is below

STRING_DB_ATTRIB = "Provider = Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source = " & SERVER_LOCATION & DB_PATH & ";"
Set mCon = New ADODB.Connection
mCon.ConnectionString = STRING_DB_ATTRIB
mCon.Properties("Jet OLEDB:Database Password") = DROWSSAP

mCon.Open

Any ideas please?

Thanks in Advance
