Visual Studio And Ms Access VB.net Dataset Fill By is not working

Question

I have a table called GRN with MS Access Database as shown below

grn_id (Autonumber)
grn_number (Text)
grn_date (Date/Time)
invoice_number (Text)
invoice_date (Date/Time)
voucher_number (Text)
supplier (Text)

I have created a data set with VB.Net Visual Studio 2012 in the data Set I have created a table adapter and a query with the following code

SELECT        grn_id, grn_number, grn_date, invoice_number, invoice_date, voucher_number, supplier
FROM            grn
WHERE        (grn_number = ?)

And named it as FillByGRN

In the form I have added the following code

Me.GrnTableAdapter.FillByGRN(dataTable:=Me.DocmanDataSet.grn, grn_number:=finfo.Text)

When I Run The application and Give the textfield finfo a value and click on my button to fill is is not working and stopped on the line of filling the table adapter.

Any Solution Please

Considering the exception you mentioned, you don't seem to have Jet Database Engine driver installed on your machine. Either download and install that driver, or in case you're running against Access 2010 or later, use ACE.OLEDB connection string instead of the old-school Jet.OLEDB .

The connection string looks like this:

Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=<Access Database Path>;

Persist Security Info=False;
