i followed pirates instructions from this post
in line 6, which is
ADOXcatalog.Create "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & "c:\newdata.mdb"
i get unhandled exception of type #System.runtime.InteropServices.COMException'
Additional Information: Could not find installable ISAM.
pirate or somebody else: any ideas what is going on and how to fix this?
Umm , weird ! What's your OS ?
Anyhow , download this update (MDAC 2.8) to update Access Components on Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows XP
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en
what if i want the app to run on a comp without the update or msaccess though?
btw, i use win xp.
pirate- are you going to write new code like you said in the tutorials section, or should i go somewhere else for the code?
Yes , I'll start rewriting the code after couple of hours . It has little bugs besides its poor UI:D .
I use XP too and have no problems . Are you sure you have MCAD 2.7 at least installed on your machine ?Quote:

If you don't have it then you must include it in your deployment project ,just in case the client doesn't have it . Most of application bear in mind this seriously .;)
oh :D
Goto Control Panel--->Administrative Tools------>Data Sources (ODBC)------>Drivers Tab-----> check how many mdb drivers are installed on your machine ?
Driver do Microsoft Access
Microsoft Access Driver
Microsoft Access-Treiber --- i live in germany. this is the german version i guess....
i now get an error in the activeconnection line:
arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptible range, or are in conflict with each other.
That's the nasty line . It's easy to fix(already fixed ) though but give me sometime to code it again in graceful way . I'll post it here when I'm done .:)Quote:

So what did you do to solve the the ISAM problem ?
I turned "DataSource" into "Data Source" :blush: :mad:
sorry, but i can't cut and paste, remember. i have to type everything by hand.
If you did make that again , I'm ganna kick your butt .:D :D
ha. but the arguments are of the wrong type error is still there, and i'm really looking forward to see your revised code... ;)
Don't be too hasty , I've just started . If you want a quick fix , just remove this :Quote:
