VB 6 and Access 97 problem

Hi!

I have just made a VB program that uses an MS Access database. I used the wizard because I'm not very good on VB-database stuff.
My question is: How do I change the size on the columns? I want it to start with a specific width. I tried to change in Access and I tried to find a place in VB to change it, but with no success.

I also would like to delete posts that are created 10 days earlier (I only want to show the newest stuff). I already have a data field in my DB.

Hope you understand...
