ADO

Add a TreeView control (Microsoft Windows Comon Controls) and a Command Button:

VB Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
    Dim rsTables As ADODB.Recordset
    Dim rsFields As ADODB.Recordset
    Dim strCnn As String
    Dim nodParent As Node
    Dim strNewTable As String
    Dim strCurrentTable As String
      
    Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
    strCnn = "Provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;Data Source=C:\NWIND.mdb"
    cn.Open strCnn
      
    Set rsFields = cn.OpenSchema(adSchemaColumns)
    
    With TreeView1
        .LineStyle = tvwRootLines
        .Indentation = 250
        
        .Nodes.Add , , "root", "Northwind"
        .Nodes.Add "root", tvwChild, "tables", "Tables"
        
        Do Until rsFields.EOF
            strCurrentTable = rsFields!TABLE_NAME
            
            If strCurrentTable <> strNewTable Then
                strNewTable = strCurrentTable
                Set nodParent = .Nodes.Add("tables", tvwChild, strCurrentTable, strCurrentTable)
            End If
            
            .Nodes.Add strCurrentTable, tvwChild, , rsFields!COLUMN_NAME
 
            rsFields.MoveNext
        Loop
    End With
    
    rsFields.Close
   
    cn.Close
End Sub
