Good Day!

     I was trying to connect to excel OLEDB with the below code snippet and when i execute the script i get an error "provider cannot be found.It may not be properly installed".However when i connect to excel DB with the same connection string using vb script,it works without any issue.

My Autoit code -

   Local $str12ConnectionString,$objDBConnect,$objRecordSet
   Local $strsqlquery,$objpropdict,$strLoggermessage

   ; Initialize COM error handler
   $oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error","fn_get_err_data")

   Local $strorfilepath="C:UsersR609DesktopAutoITRootTestDataObjectIdentifier.xlsx"

   Local $str12Provider = "Microsoft.ace.OLEDB.12.0" 

   $str12ConnectionString = "Data Source=" & $strorfilepath & ";Extended Properties=Excel 12.0;"

   $objDBConnect = ObjCreate("ADODB.Connection")
   $objDBConnect.Open ("Provider=" & $str12Provider & ";" & _
                "Data Source="& $strorfilepath &";" & _
                "Extended Properties=Excel 12.0")

My vb script code -

   strorfilepath = "C:UsersR609DesktopAutoITRootTestDataObjectIdentifier.xlsx"

   str12Provider = "Microsoft.ace.OLEDB.12.0"

   Set objDBConnect = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

   objDBConnect.Open ("Provider=" & str12Provider & ";" & _
                "Data Source=" & strorfilepath & ";" & _
                "Extended Properties=Excel 12.0")

   Can some one help me to resolve the issue?

  

Thanks in advance
