    Ok as some of you know i have a program that accesses 3 db 2 inventory and 1 personal inventory what i would like to know is if you can access the 3 databases from 1 data control or not? Or do i have to code it into the program?

    Any Ideas

    Thanks

    Try using an ADO control instead. Somehow in the select statement you are able to specify multiple databases (I am lead to believe you can anyway).

    To keep it simple I would have 3 separate controls, but that's just me.

    I'm afraid you will have to use code. The best way is probably using SQL...eg
    SELECT whatever FROM tablename WHERE whatyouwant = "string"
    You can do this for as many different tables or db's as needed.
