"Permision denied"

[johngwalker]

Trying to recompile an old VB 5.0 program on my new Windows 98 machine I get the message "Permission denied" with the statement

Set SystemDatabases = DBEngine.Workspaces(0)

"Workspaces" is flagged as the item in error.

What permission do I need and how do I give myself it?

which database you use? You had the DB on the other PC with a password? Which System was on the old PC? Which VB?
More infos please ...

This is not a runtime message. It comes form the compiler (VB 5.0), and has nothing to with any database that I am using. It has something to do with what the compiler does when it handles this statement.

When I compile this program on my other (W95) machine, it runs on my W98 system. There is no runtime problem.

I checked my programs and found the problem ....
You use DAO and MDB.
The Jet-Engine from you is not the correct one or not installed. That must be the problem.
