Hello

I have ten tables to create forms for.I thought about using the wizard in VB6 for standard forms to add,change delete.I have already created some forms in Access.Can VB6 forms link to Access forms.

Also,when I try to link VB6 wizard to my database it says my database is in an unrecognisable format?

Thanks

You need to set up a file DSN in your ODBC (open database connectivity) control pannel. I had the same proplem and that was how I got around it. You will find problems when you try to pull data from Access 2000 to a program in VB6.0. This is why you set up a DSN on ODBC, and it works great!
