    Hi everyone, I have a Windows application developed in C#. I use MS-Access database and OLEDB to connect with the database. One of my client faced problem while executing the software. While studying the error log file that the software created, it has:

    No error message available, result code: E_UNEXPECTED(0x8000FFFF)

    The same client is able to run the software on other machines in same network. I have no access to the cilent machine. If anyone has experienced such situation or have any knowledge about how to resolve this then it will be of great help. I have asked the client to provide the Windows Event Log.. that might be helpful.

    Regards, -SIFAR.

      Seems to be a permissions issue, can you check that the client have sufficient permissions to access the DB?

        Thanks Prakash, I agree with you that permission might be the issue. But the database is created with the installation process of the software. And the client faces the problem from very first exectuion. (And i think that the client does not have MS-Access installed on his machine) I will work around this and post the result accordingly..

        Regards, -SIFAR.

          hi i am not any experience but in my opinion this problem is due to changing the version. try to use below connection string: Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OleDb.4.0;Data Source=|DataDirectory|mydb.mdb
