hi guys,

i am trying to use vb 6 with access 2000 file format. but this doesnt seem to work. so far i have only managed to implement my program using 97 file format. is there any way i can change this or not using vb6.

Show us your code. How are you opening the DB?

basically i am opening it through a data access control. Then i have 7 text fields which basically are referrenced to fields from the database

Try adding a control - Microsoft ADO Data Control 6.0
It supports ADO, which is used by Access 2000, as far as I can remember.

Add the ADODC control to your form instead of the regular Data one.

its not on my list, can i dl it from anywhere

dont think you can dl it from anywhere... its part of the visual basic installation... it should be in your list of components
