In a VB6 application, the Access database contains 2 tables. The software reads the first table OK, but when it tries to read the second table, the database opens OK but no data is retrieved. It used to work OK but now there is a problem. When opening the database in Access (2000) to check, the data is all there and available.

Access database problem in VB6 application

swanie,
Looks like you're not getting many sniffs on this subject.
I think if it were me, I'd try turning on ODBC tracing then open the connection and run a query on each table. The trace info might show some difference in the database response, or even show that the SQL you're sending is not what you intended...just a thought.
Also check your data and be sure that what you're asking for is in there. Try a "Select * from <table>" to verify that you can get data from the table.
A final note--I had an Access database once that, even after repairing, would not return any data. I fought it for a couple days, then finally, created a new database, and imported all of the objects from the old one into it. The new one worked fine, and continues to work fine (it's been about a year).
Good Luck,
Tranman
