Hello,

I am using a Data control in VB 6 to populate a table in Excel. How do I add Excel 9.0 (and/or Access 2000 for that matter)to the project References so that the Connect property of the Data control includes Excel 9.0 in the list?

Thanks,
QA1
 
Go to tools, references and selection Microsoft Excel 9.0 Library.
???
 
No.

Update to VB6 SP 5 from the MS Site.

Select Excel 8.0 lib in the Connect in order to connect to Excel 9.0, or Access 2000 in order to connect to this.
 
CCLINT,

Thanks for your response. The Access 2000 option was added to the list when I upgraded to SP5.

I am still not able to make Excel work with the Data control. I get an error saying "Couldn't Find Installable ISAM"

Is the ISAM something I can download?
 
Remove the REFERENCE to DAO 3.51 and Add a reference to DAO 3.6 (PROJECT|REFERENCES)
