Help is needed....please....

Dim oProviderFactory As DbProviderFactory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory(GetFactoryByProvider(_factory))

Private Shared Function GetFactoryByProvider(ByVal oGetFactory As Providers) As String
        Select Case CType(oGetFactory, Providers)
            Case Providers.Odbc
                Return "System.Data.Odbc"

            Case Providers.OleDb
                Return "System.Data.OleDb"

            Case Providers.SqlClient
                Return "System.Data.SqlClient"

        End Select

    End Function

Hi Sini and thanks for your report.

> But it running perfectly in another machine.
As you've already noticed, there's something wrong in configuration of non-functioning box and you have to figure out what. I can't do that for you.

What I would do is start from "NET 2.0 FW config"/"My Computer"/"Assembly Cache" and see if I can find a problem there. It is also possible you're trying to use VP plug-in with express version of VS, that's no-go.

c/NET 5.0.3 is rather old, you should better try with 5.1 latest version.
