I recently upgraded to a new laptop running Windows 7 64 bit (which my previous laptop was as well).
I'm having trouble accessing SSIS packages I originally wrote on the previous laptop. Both used Visual Studio 2010 with no problem, but I fear something wasn't loaded.
The package in question uses an Excel 2010 file as the source for a data flow step. When I open the Excel source and select "Columns", it tells me "the requested OLE DB provider Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 is not registered". It won't even let me look at the step, let alone run it.
Reading up on the issue, I figured I needed Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 for 64-bit windows. I loaded it, and it shows up in the Programs list. But I'm still getting the same error.
Is there another driver I need, or do I need to point Visual Studio to this driver?
