Hello all:

I have had some troubles getting a secured Access database to talk w/my C#
application. I have created a username/password combo in Access and I have
received the familiar:

The workgroup information file is missing...

error which I thought was solved by this thread:

http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/MessageBoard/Thread.aspx?id=153075&Page=1#153480

Which worked great by adding the mdw (workgroup info file) as the System
database. However, now it seems as though I can only open a connection in
code by adding one using the designer. If I try to open the connection by
manually giving a new connection a ConnectionString the Open method will
always return the above error. I have even copied and pasted the entire
ConnectString that the designer generates into my code but it still does not
work.

Is this a VS.NET error?
