    :< Yeah dude. I feel your pain. I was up against this once myself, but left the job before we got anything concrete. (Which is why I made the blog entry that one time.)....... You probably can't do this, but you may need to find a machine without Office on it, and see if you install the AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe version, if you can get it to work. I know, a long road to figure something out. I don't have anymore suggestions. Office 32bit is the fly in this soup I think (???) but I'm not 100% sure. Commented May 3, 2013 at 18:35

  • Try my example.......using the file from the internet. See if that works. My Target Platform is "x86" . When I change it to "Any CPU", I get a "The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine." error. (Just to show you my x86 vs x64 talk wasn't just non sense.)
