DBGETPROP( ) Function
Example See Also

Returns a property for the current database or for fields, named connections, tables, or views in the current database.

Syntax

DBGETPROP(cName, cType, cProperty)

Returns

Character, Numeric, or Logical

Arguments

cName

Specifies the name of the database, field, named connection, table, or view for which DBGETPROP( ) returns information.

To return information about a field in a table or a view, preface the name of the field with the name of the table or view containing the field. For example, to return information about the custid field in the customer table, specify the following for cName:

customer.custid

cType

Specifies whether cName is the current database, or a field, named connection, table, or view in the current database. The following table lists the values you can specify for cType:

I'm sorry but dbgetprop seems to be a APIcall, well maybe it's not, but my VB (5) doesn't recognizes it, so I'm sorry but I can't help you, maybe the VB helpfiles or the MSKB can help you, oh I looked for you and it can't :mad:

ok thanks anyway !!!
if i find the solution, will definately let u know
