I have downloaded an advantage database on my c\temp\ccsodata directory. Its pretty much just the DBF,CDX,and FPT files. I used Advantage data architect to test my queries. I have the connection properties in Advantage data architect set as such:

ConnectionPath: C:\temp\CCSODATA
TableType: cdx
ServerType: local
CommunicationType: default
LockingMode: proprietary
CharType: ansi
SecurityMode: ignorerights
DBFTableType: cdx
TableMakss: *.adt,*.dbf




 
Thx, I found the connection string. Now I'm getting an error stating:


Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.

Anyone know how to install it or where to find it? I added a reference in the project to ADSOLEDBLib is this not correct?
 
I think it may be because I don't have it registered inside the Machine.config file under DbProviderFactories. Does anyone know where I can find an example of how to register it?
