Hi perl monks,
I badly need your help with this. I want to get the custom properties of ms Access files. I am able to open .mdb files but not .accdb files. Can any one help me with this.
my $filename = "database.accdb"; # $ARGV[0];
print $filename."\n";
$oAccess = Win32::OLE->new('Access.Application') or die qq{Couldn't st
+art new Access instance!};
# Open Access File
$oDatabase = $oAccess->DBEngine->Workspaces(0)->OpenDatabase($filename
+);
When I tryto open .accdb files it says
OLE exception from "DAO.Workspace":
Could not find file 'database.accdb'.
Win32::OLE(0.1709) error 0x800a0bd0
in METHOD/PROPERTYGET "OpenDatabase" at accessTest.pl
I also tried this code
my $filename = "database.accdb"; # $ARGV[0];
print $filename."\n";
$oAccess = Win32::OLE->new('Access.Application') or die qq{Couldn't st
+art new Access instance!};
# Open Access File
$oDatabase = $oAccess->OpenCurrentDatabase($filename);
But with this also it says file not found.
Do I need to install any drivers for ms access or any thing like that.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
