Hi Jason,

In trying your program, I seem to have the connection working, but there seems to be something simple I have wrong.   I have added a try/catch block and have shown the error I'm getting:

"ERROR [42S02] [Lacerte][SQLEngine] (31740) Table or view not found: LACERTEDATA..DATA1-Client Info"

I have tried using both the dataDir set to @"N:\Lacerte\21tax\IDATA" and @"N:\Lacerte\21tax\DEMODATA", but am getting the same error.

I have attached a screen shot.    I'm using the 64 bit driver on a 64 bit system.   It's crashing on the "using" statement.

Almost there...

Thanks for your assistance!

Rick
