access 2000 and visual basic

[Yoya]

Do you know if an access 2000 program can be converted to Visual Basic? or if I can import an access form to visual basic?

Thank you.

Yes, I think I know, but I'm only about 80% to 90% sure. There is no way, that I am aware of, to convert Access(?) to VB. You can automate Access within VB, you can also read Access data within your VB Program. Access forms themselves are not convertable to VB forms. Again I state that I am only about 80% to 90% sure on this.

Access forms definitely aren't usable outside Access. The VB code itself hardly requires any changes at all. Just replace all instances of CurrentDB with the object variable corresponding to your Database.

I have a program that claims it can do that kind of conversion. It's been sent to you by e-mail.

The AccessToVB product line is designed to convert programs written in Microsoft Access to equivalent Microsoft Visual Basic projects. AccessToVB analyzes the database, and then converts the forms, macros, modules, reports, and code behind forms to Visual Basic. There are a number of user selectable options, including which forms and modules to convert, the choice of custom controls supported, and the ability to convert the project to an MDI project. All standard Access controls are converted, including the tab and page break controls. The AccessToVB product line the complete solution for all of your Access conversion needs

Unlike similar programs, AccessToVB includes multicolumn listbox, and can convert tabbed forms, multipage forms, and read-only continuous forms. AccessToVB has the most comprehensive code translation engine of any such product, and is the only product that includes report conversion

Well, if you're really into that stuff, it does sound interesting.

Good luck
