Hi All-

In my console application I am using OLDEB to convert csv to DataTable. When I run the .cs file from VS command prompt I am getting the error 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' provider is not registered on the local machine. I have already installed Microsoft Access Database Engine, but still I am getting the error. Is there any command available in VS command prompt to convert it into x86.

Note: I am working in a windows 7, 64-bit machine.

Please help,
Thanks in advance.

You, or your question, seem a little confused. If you wish to use Jet 4.0 then you must build to x86, which will run quite happily on a 64bit system. Or you could run as 64-bit and use the Microsoft.Ace.OLEDB.12.0 engine. Either way you need to download the driver and install it on your system.

Richard already told you what to do.
On more operative basis: if you have MSoffice 32 bits already installed simply recompile your code changing the solution platform in visual studio from 'any CPU' to 'x86' and your code will work.
