What OS are you running this on?

Are you sure that Jet 4.0 is installed on the machine?

Are you certain that you have Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) version 2.7 or later installed?

This from your linked page (above):

"If you are using Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Server 2003, you already have MDAC 2.7. However, if you using Microsoft Windows 2000, you might have to upgrade the MDAC version that is already installed on the computer. To download the current MDAC version, see Data Access and Storage Developer Center."

If you are certain, you might try running Component Checker to make sure the install is correct: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=8F0A8DF6-4A21-4B43-BF53-14332EF092C9&displaylang=en

Run Component Checker and see if it turns up any troubles.

This shows how to determine the Jet level installed.

CompChecker should install in the same folder that contains the .msi file.

How did you get it to work?
aspnewbie09Author Commented:
when creating the new website file; instead of of selection "HTTP" under Location in the lower left hand side; I choose "File System" instead.  Not sure if it's the right way of doing it; but it works.
