Database and APIs

Hi,

I wanna know if I can make a database proggy (Add/mod/del/next/prev/last/first/search etc etc) using APIs. I'm talking of working with Access 2000 . If there're any tutorialz lemme know

Yes you can. Please explain more on what you want to do.

I wanna perform all the basic operations on the table such as ADD new records, MODIFY existing records, Deleting Records, Searching for records(Bsaed on some Criteria) and also simple navigation through the records (Next/Previous/First/Last).

So you want to write a program with an access *.mdb as the database, but not to need access? Use ADO, or OLEDB, etc.

Yeah, I dont wanna use any Data Controls or objects or ODBC or any other DBEngine.

I want to perform the operations using APIs.

Then you need to write your own DB engine.

Work with binary files with:

Work with memory and stuff with:

You might be better off with C++ than VB for this, if speed is a concern.
