Access 2000 4.0 Provider line fails?
Thanks, that was indeed the problem. Someone should tell MS developers don't
like meaningless (from a program logic view) spaces!
Actually solving that probelm then caused a different error, which was
solved by running the workgroup administrator in MSOffice. (There was a
third error, which was solved by re-opening the database as shared; even
though the default was shared, this somehow opened in exclusive mode,
perhaps because I had created it from scratch and JET set it to the setting
it used when creating the db, i.e. exclusive.)
I still don't have ADO help though, but that's on another thread.
