    In the world of database programming, why do programmers create database objects with statements like:

    Dim mydb as database
    set mydb = createdatabase("mydb.mdb", dbLangGeneral)

    etc. etc., I think you see what I'm talking about.
    The Beginner books that I own, never seem to go into the issue, and the other books I have, seem to skim over it.
    Question: What is the advantage, Why not just let the DAO or ADO object do it all?

    Your example *is* letting the DAO object do it. That's how you create a database in DAO.

    Just what ARE you talking about?
