If you encounter the error below starting the CEImport utility I/O error for file CreateFile (open) "AYANOVA.FDB"
Error while trying to open file  it is because you are using the stand-alone default installation of AyaNova and one or more of the following may be occurring:

1. You can not have the AyaNova v3 program running, nor the AyaNova CE program running when you perform the CEImport

2. If using the default installation of AyaNova v3 without having confiugred for network use, the Database= section of the AyaImport.exe.config file must have the full path of where the AYANOVA.FDB file resides

Incorrect line in the AyaImport.exe.config when using default AyaNova v3 installation:

<add key="DataBaseConnectionString" value="ServerType=1;DataBase=AYANOVA.FDB;Dialect=3;" />

Correct line in AyaImport.exe.config when using default AyaNova v3 installation:

<add key="DataBaseConnectionString" value="ServerType=1;DataBase=C:\Program Files\Ground Zero Tech-Works Inc\AyaNova 3\AYANOVA.FDB;Dialect=3;" />

.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
