Connect to a Microsoft access database (ADO.NET)
The OleDbConnection
object handles the connection to the Microsoft Access Database. The OleDbCommand contains the Microsoft
SQL statement that tells the database what to do. The OLE DB connection uses
the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0, which is the new Access database engine OLE DB
driver that can also read previous formats. The Jet OLE DB driver cannot access Microsoft Access
2007 databases. Following example shows connecting with a Microsoft access
database.
Example:
using System;
using System.Data.OleDb;
namespace MicrosoftAccessdatabase
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string Dbpath = @"..\..\myAccessDB.accdb";
string AccessDbConnectString ="Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + Dbpath;
using (OleDbConnection connection = new OleDbConnection(AccessDbConnectString))
{
connection.Open();
Console.WriteLine("Connection State: {0}\n", connection.State);
Console.WriteLine("OLE DB Provider: {0}\n", connection.Provider);
Console.WriteLine("Server Version: {0}\n", connection.ServerVersion);
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
