Error 3706 when invoking Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0

[fdeutsch]

Hey everyone,

I've got xlsm files used by multiple devices to handle supervision at a client of mine, it works fine on older devices (win10 computers and win10 ARM tablets) but a newly installed windows 10 computer runs into an error at one point into the script when the code tries to invoke Microsoft Jet. I've tried to modify the code from

Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0

to

Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0

and the script was able to continue normally. Unfortunately this error is persists in all their other supervision files and I can't find a way to batch modify or modify from a template file.

I installed all the redistributables from Microsoft as well as the Access database engine and rebooted the PC but I still run into the same issue.

Does any of you have any idea of what I could do next ?

Thanks for your help.

If that computer uses 64bit Office, then Jet will not work. I think you will have to alter the code in the files.

Yes it uses 64bit Office, thanks for your reply, I'll see with my colleague who wrote the code to workaround this issue.
