I recently got a new computer from HP with Windows 7 Professional and I can't get my VS to do data bases! I had VS 2005 on my old computer and it worked OK. I loaded the VS 2005 on the new computer (installing it as per Microsoft's instructions)
and I had problems right away with data the base part of VS 2005. I then removed it and installed VS 2008 Express and I still get the same problem. All else seems to work. I can see the data in the "Preview Data" I can
switch to other tables and see the data in those files with the "Preview Data" window.
The error I'm getting I have copyed below.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
