[RESOLVED] cant load msado.tlh

[Muddy]

I cant seem to make this statement work in a header file (Visual Studio 2010):

#import "msado15.dll"

Ive also tried the full path to msado.dll. Ive tried to clean the solution and full recompile. I looked in the target path and msado.tlh isnt getting generated.

The error is:

IntelliSense: cannot open source file "c:/Users/john smith/documents/visual studio 2010/Projects/try7db/try7db/Debug/msado15.tlh" c:\users\john smith\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\try7db\try7db\database.h

can someone tell me what Im doing wrong?

btw my ultimate goal is to connect/read/write to an existing SLQCE database.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Seems there must be an issue with my VS2010 which is odd since I just recently installed it. I have a side by side installation of VS2008 that I tried this in. It works with some issues which were resolved with the following modifications:

  #import "c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\System\ADO\msado15.dll"  rename ("EOF","adoEOF") no_namespace

Ill probably uninstall/reinstall VS2010 at some point to see if I can get it to work in that. At least one person helping me with this found that it worked on VS2010 on his machine. I suppose Im happy enough to have it working in VS2008 for now.
