First of all, I'd like to note that the error is returned by your data provider and therefore most probably it is not related to TestComplete. As I understand, the connection string works for Access 2007, but does not work for Access 2010. If so, you probably need to use another provider and/or connection string for Access 2010. For example, you can find more information on this here:

Also, try moving the file to a local folder (I suppose that w:\ is a mapped drive) - there is a small chance this will help.
