I'm trying to connect ms access database using c#. While doing that I'm stuck at one place.

Whenever i try to open the connection using

OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection("connection string valid");
conn.Open();

I get error that whichever is the provider, it is not registered onto the local machine !

I have downloaded the msaccessEngine also from well known link http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255.
