Article ID: 838768 - Last Review: November 15, 2007 - Revision: 2.7 FIX: Accessibility error occurs when you configure a UDL file on a computer that is running a 64-bit operating system
SYMPTOMSWhen you try to configure a Universal Data Link (UDL) file
for the OLE DB sample provider on a computer that is running a 64-bit operating
system, you may receive the following error message:
Properties you entered cannot be saved because the Data Link file is
inaccessible. Ensure that the hard drive or network share is still
available. CAUSEA coding error in the OLE DB sample provider sets the dialog
window handle to a 32-bit pointer value instead of to a 64-bit pointer value.
When the pointer value is set to 34-bit, the information for the 64-bit
operating system is missing. RESOLUTION A supported hotfix is available from Microsoft. However, this hotfix is intended to correct only the problem that is described in this article.
