    Hi, I am getting the following error when running the sql script Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 for linked server (null)

    SELECT *
    FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0',
    'Text;Database=\\xxxx\xxx\xxx\DataExchange\xcxcxcx\xxxx\;HDR=Yes;Format=TabDelimited',
    'SELECT * FROM TIN_Solicitation_Response_Error_01032017.txt')

    I tried online reading different articles and answers, I could not get answer for it. Any help like why does it happen, when it happens and any fixes etc can be greatly helpful. Thanks in advance. Thanks, Abdul Aleem "There is already enough hatred in the world lets spread love, compassion and affection."

      Have you confirmed that the file exists in that path FROM THE SERVER. Not from your local machine.
