    Question

    I have a table I designed in Access 2000. I can design a form for it in Access, and it uses VB6 to do the design. But I wanted to create an exe instead of a macro thing, but when I start a new project, and tell the form wizard to open and use the Access database, I get an 'Unrecognized Format' error on the database.

    ???

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi MadManMike !!!

    If you want to access the Data in the Database
    check the right references in your project.
    Look at Menuitem Project-->References.

    For Access 97 Microsoft DAO 3.5 or 3.6
    for Access 2000 Microsoft ADO (i'm not sure)

    if you want to use ACCESS in the set a referece to Microsoft Access.

    Hope this helps
