Adding C: in front of db path

I have done an application where its connection is like that:

strCnxn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=//MyNetworkServer\VOL3\DB\Tellog.mdb;Persist Security Info=False"

The acces database is residing on myNetwork server as shown above. and the application will be installed on user machine to interact with database on server

When I do the installation on user machine and run the program it gives me an error saying that database path is not known or available something like that

C:=//MyNetworkServer\VOL3\DB\Tellog.mdb

I don't know why it is adding C: in front of the Database path which I have put in my project, when I compile it on my system and run it, it works fine and get connected to database, but when I install it on user machine it gives that error which is:

C:=//MyNetworkServer\VOL3\DB\Tellog.mdb path is not find??!!

Can somebody help please..

Thanks alot.

In your UNC path change // to backslashes. It should look like this:

strCnxn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\\MyNetworkServer\VOL3\DB\Tellog.mdb;Persist Security Info=False"

I think that will fix it.
