    Custom Connection Strings

    Refer to the following help topic for the connection string examples: Custom Connection String.

    Footnotes

    1. If your project in Visual Studio 2022 has to connect to Microsoft Access databases, note that Visual Studio 2022 is a 64-bit process, and Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Jet and the Jet ODBC driver are only available in 32-bit versions. It is recommended that you use the 64-bit Microsoft Access Database Engine (Access Connectivity Engine, ACE), or use an earlier version of Visual Studio (VS 2019) that supports 32-bit database providers. For more information, review the following article: Connect to data in an Access database.

    2. In .NET projects, the Microsoft.Data.SQLite library does not support the Any CPU platform target because SQLite requires architecture-specific native binaries. You need to change your project’s platform target to a specific architecture.
