VB & Database, Opening different DBASE-Databases at runtime via DAO

Opening different DBASE-Databases at runtime via DAO

Author	Message
Berger, Kristo #1 / 3	Opening different DBASE-Databases at runtime via DAO Hi! Maybe one of you guys/girls can help me out of that one: There are still people using DBASE. Yeah! How is it done to open a DBASE-Database at runtime via DAO? I tried the OpenDatabase-method, but i get errors (Databasetype not recognized) though i passed "dbase IV;" as Connect. What Do I do wrong? Any example or hint would be appreciated. TIA Kristof

Set dbKristof = OpenDatabase("C:\SomeFolder", False, True, "dBase IV") Set rsKristof = dbKristof.OpenRecordset("FileName.dbf") -- Jim in Cleveland If you're writing to me, in my address change "REAL_Address.see.below" to "worldnet.att.net" "What's so funny 'bout peace, love & understanding?" - Nick Lowe

Durai Mahesh Nataraja #3 / 3	Opening different DBASE-Databases at runtime via DAO if you use Microsoft Visual Foxpro odbc driver you can access more functionality, as visual foxpro driver can also be used for dbase files.
