We have a 150 working with no problems, but you might want to see if NT
is causing the problem or VB. One way to do this is to open the same
database using another EXE with the same engine. (i.e. VB4 DAO == Access
DAO, etc..). Also check with the NT resource kit to find out what that
error code means, and you might want to place the latest service pack on
your system.
