Unable to compile Demo Program

Post by MahoneyH » Thu 05 Jul 2012 21:07

Hello,

I have Delphi XE2 on Windows 7 64bit. I have Office 2010 32bit installed.

I am trying to compile the demo as a 64bit program. The compile fails with the the following line:
[BRCC32 Error] UniDacDemo.vrc(1): error creating UniDacDemo.res

My goal is to read MS Access mdb files on this 64bit Windows 7 machine with Office 2010 32bit installed with a 64bit Delphi program. Will the UniDAC do that? I was fine with ADO, but the matching of 32bit and 64bit seems problematic.

Thanks

hello,

Most probably, you have no rights for writing to the folder where UniDAC demos are located, due to this the error occurs.

MS Windows doesn't allow to simultaneously install two versions of MS Access ODBC driver (x32 and x64), therefore, depending on the format of the appliacation (x32 or x64) you are developing, a corresponding client should be installed on your computer for the possibility to connect to a MS Access DB
