titleNote About Access and Excel Imports

When using the Generic Import wizard with the Aptify Desktop interface to import a Microsoft Access/Excel 2013 or 2016 file, the import may fail if running the 64-bit version of Microsoft Office 2013 or 2016. The error that is generated is: The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine. The import fails because the user's computer has the 64-bit version of Access/Excel 2013 or 2016 installed, while the Aptify shell requires the 32-bit version. 

The current workaround for this issue is to install the 32-bit version of the Access Database Engine Redistributable on the user's computer. You can download the redistributable here:

After you have created or identified a suitable Import Source for your import file (see Creating Import Sources), you can run the Generic Import wizard.
