How to identify VB connected databases
I would really appreciate if somebody could help me.
I have a VB-access application created 10 years ago. I worked on it changed its databases and references in the code. However whenever I create an excutable, I get an error that old database doesn't exist. I searched thorough entire code there is no reference to that database at all.
I think the some of the front end stuff might still have connections, how can I identify them easily?
Thanks,

Is this application using bound controls?

from windows explorer, right-click the FRM file ( NOT THE FRX) ... and open with Notepad.... search for the old database name. Replace with new name. Save close & Try building again.
