Type mismatch error when trying to open connection via ColdFusion Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I'm trying to create an OLEDB connection to SalesLogix from ColdFusion via ADO, like so:

connStr='Provider=SLXOLEDB.1

assword=xxxx

ersist Security Info=True;User ID=Admin;Initial Catalog=SALESLOGIX;Data Source=xxxx;Extended Properties="PORT=1706;LOG=ON"';
objDataConn = CreateObject("COM", "ADODB.Connection");
objDataConn.Open(connStr);

I get this error: 0x80020005 - Type mismatch. in 'Provider'.

I've tested the connection interactively using Ryan's connection builder and it succeeds.

The error seems to indicate a datatype issue with the value of the 'provider' key in the connection string. Anyone have any insight?

Do you have ANY SalesLogix components installed on the machine you are executing the above code? I realize this may be a silly question but, the connection will not work unless you have the SalesLogix OLEDB Provider installed on the machine.
