Microsoft Access {FIXED PROBLEM}

I just been following a tutorial which shows you how to impliment a database into your form, and it said to open a databse file that was in the vb directory and i did so and it worked, it was a microsoft access databse, I made my own database on Microsoft Access 2003 and when I went to choose the DataField for a caption it said 'Unrecognized database format' Is there a way of saving the database so vb can recognise it?

Rob,
if at all possible avoid bound controls on your forms. I believe most members of this board will agree.
