    Access97 on a Access2000 machine

    We just delivered an app developed using VB/Access97 to a customer who has Access2000 on his Win98 machine. Included in the distributed files was DAO350.DLL.

    When the customer executes a piece of code that calls for a delete (MyDB.Execute "DELETE * FROM myTable;"), the program errors with an error code of 0 (I think that's an automation error).

    Anyone want to try this one???

    As long as no one opened the DB in Access 2000 and converted it, everything should work fine. If someone converted it, then there is a different story.

    Hmmm, similar problem.

    seoptimizer is right, and yes we hit the same problem. You need to develop in Access 2000, and include DAO 3.6 in your distribution. Haven't testing this as yet, but apparently is backwardly compatiable with Access97.

    Anyone want to guess we will have even more problems with Access XP, which can be fixed with a download, 13 service packs, and a hundred dollar note to the Gates foundation. I am getting mightly sick of MSs bulls**te.
