I have my C# app connected to Jet 4.0 engine. When I run the query "select * from open" (I think "open" is a keyword and this is why I'm getting an exception, but...) I get this exception: "IErrorInfo.GetDescription failed with E_FAIL(0x80004005)". I usually get more human readable exceptions telling me what is wrong with my query. This one looks more like a bug in the Jet engine. I just tested in Microsoft Access 2002 to run the same query and it treats "open" as a perfectly valid name. I can create a table named "open" and do whatever I want with it. I just need to know if it's a bug in the Jet engine so I can go ahead and replace the weired looking message for a human readable one and show that to the user, or if there is a problem with my code.
Getting "IErrorInfo.GetDescription failed with E_FAIL(0x80004005)" when querying "select * from open"
