I believe the OleDb provider for JET is whacked on my PC. The Page Property
menu item on the context menu for Data Access Pages simply does not open, the
Connection menu item on the context menu for "Right-Click Database" on the
"Field List" Task Pane does not open. No connection property even appears on
the data Access page property sheet.

The data link wizard in Visual Studio 2005 will not run properly when I try
to configure a connection to Access 2003 databse.

I have checked that I have all versions of MDAC, I have uninstalled Access,
Office, and resinstalled. I have ensured latest SPs for Jet are installed,
Office SP2 installed, etc. etc.

Any conflicts with IE 7.0.5335?? That is the one difference I know between
this PC and my others.
 
A common source of connection problems with ODBC is the Office Plug-In in
Norton Antivirus 2006. For OLEDB, I don't know but maybe you may want to
take a check.
 
Problem solved. Needed to register the oledb32.dll file again. It was lost.

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB\oledb32.dll"

That fixed the Data Link Wizard...
