Ok: some 'funny' results:

I installed JET 4.0 SP7: It worked once (ONCE!!), and afterwarths I got the
same error... :-(

Than I installed JET 4.0 SP8 and MDAC 2.8: It still doesn't work, but the
Error-message is different now:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at
System.Data.SqlClient.ConnectionPool.GetConnection(Boolean& isInTransaction)
   at
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionPoolManager.GetPooledConnection(SqlConnec
tionString options, Boolean& isInTransaction)
   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.Open()

I'm still not able to find out what causes the problem and how to find a
resolution :-( Any help would really be appreciated!! The weird thing is
that it only happens on one pc (NT SP6a), on the others I tested it (a 2000
and a NT SP6A) it works fine...

Thanks in advance,

Pieter
