Hello,
I just finished the migration of previous WLD6.2(32Bit) to a new computer with WLD6.4(64Bit)and fail to create new DataSet via Excel Provider. The error report showed when I try to select XLS file for dataset creation:
Error: The ConnectionString property has not been initialized
Could you help to detect what would be the problem with that?
Thanks

P.S. The Wiki link should be sufficient to solve the problem.
However, if it happens that you must run 32-bit MS Office on your 64-bit Windows, consider reviewing this discussion too:
Excel Static provider error messageBasically, it says that if you run 32-bit MS Office on a 64-bit PC, making the Excel provider work can be made either by installing 64-bit Office or by installing 32-bit WLD.

Thanks for the guide. The issue is now clear. It seems like I have to install 32-bit WLD to replace the existing 64-bit WLD.
BTW, is there any particular operation needed to replace the installed 64-bit WLD?
Thanks

Not exactly: only if you must continue using 32-bit Office apps. If you can install 64-bit MS Office OR replace them with an alternative (offline: OpenOffice/LibreOffice, online: Google Drive/SkyDrive), then you can install the 64-bit driver and work in 64-bit Wealth-Lab.

No need to replace it. Install it alongside 64-bit Wealth-Lab to work with the Excel provider in 32-bit WL, and enjoy benefits of 64-bit WL for everything else.
