check out http://www.pscode.com for examples.  You would need to use ADO.NET in addition to VB.NET in order to obtain the required data.

There seems to be a feature to link the table with Outlook, though I have never done it!! \n\nIn Access, select File, Get External Data, Link Tables. In the dropdown box select Outlook()\n\nThis way you would have a direct connection to Outlook from Access.

An Access database is just an ordinary file.  Use the My .ComputerFileSystem .CopyFile function.  This requires VB 2005.\n\n(Spaces added to foil Yahoo! mangling.)

It's not entirely clear what you're trying to do here ... but it sounds as though you want to use the MS Access Workgroup Security which modifies the system.mdw file associated with any Access database you may open / use.  I'd avoid using that strategy with a VB application.  If this is a network environment, create a table in the target database which can be used to store the network user id for anyone you want to allow access to the application and data.  Then use the Windows API to read the user id when the application is launched - then validate the user id against your user id table and permit or deny based upon the result.\n\nHere's some code snippets that may help (Good luck!):\n\nPublic strUser As String\n\nPublic Declare Function WNetGetUser Lib "mpr.dll" Alias "WNetGetUserA" _\n    (ByVal lpName As String, ByVal lpUserName As String, lpnLength As Long) _\n    As Long\n\nConst NoError = 0\n\n******************************\n\nSub GetUserInfo()\n\nConst lpnLength As Integer = 255\nDim lpName, lpUserName As String\nDim status As Integer\n\nlpUserName = Space$(lpnLength + 1)\n\nstatus = WNetGetUser(lpName, lpUserName, lpnLength)\n\nIf status = NoError Then\n    strUser = Left$(lpUserName, InStr(lpUserName, Chr(0)) - 1)\nElse\n    strUser = "Unknown"\nEnd If\n\nEnd Sub

You need to go into administratror tools within the operating system.  Select Computer Management, Shared Folders, Open Files and see if the Access Database in question is open.  This has to be done on the computer that has the database file.  If it shows up on the list of open files, select all instances and select close / disconnect open files.  This should allow you to compact and repair the database if needed or simply remove it.

You absolutely can through an ODBC connection.  Are you using DB2 on an AS/400?\n\nSee the following instructions:\nhttp://support.businessobjects.com/library/kbase/articles/c2016569.asp

Ok, if I am understanding this properly, access is referring to Microsoft Access?\n\nYou cannot open a dbf file from within Access.

If you are doing .NET work, have you looked in the machine.config to see what your connection string(s) is(are)?\n\nTake a look at this example:\n\n  <connectionStrings>\n    <remove name="LocalSqlServer"/>\n    <add name="MyDatabase" connectionString="data source=sql2k503.datamain.net;Initial Catalog=SQL20005_DB;User ID=Meuser; Password=abcdef" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />\n  </connectionStrings\n\nHope this helps, or at least points you in the right direction.

Well, accessing the ms access database directly from j2me might be very dificult.\n\nWhat i would suggest is that you interface the two with a web scripting language (ASP, PHP, ASP .NET or JSP).  ASP and ASP .NET might be easier since they are also created by microsoft. I tried that myself also.\n\nSo, after interfacing the Webpage with the Access, you can access the Access data using your cellular phone by connecting to the web page.  Use the HttpConnection Class of J2ME in accessing the webpage.\n\nGood Luck!

To connect to an MS Access databse use this code:\n\n<CFQUERY NAME="rs" \n DBTYPE="dynamic" \n CONNECTSTRING="Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=c:&#92;db&#92;mydb.mdb;Uid=Admin;Pwd=;"\n>\nSELECT SeekId, SeekUsername, SeekPassword from Seekers\n</CFQUERY> \n\nIncase you wan't to use an extended path use this code. \n<CFQUERY NAME="rs" \n DBTYPE="dynamic" \n CONNECTSTRING="Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=#ExpandPath('..&#92;bettergig&#92;cgi-bin&#92;bettergig.mdb')#;Uid=Admin;Pwd=pass;"\n>\nSELECT SeekId, SeekUsername, SeekPassword from Seekers\n</CFQUERY>\n\nBoth the connections that I have described above are DNS-less connection or ready-to-connect. So you need not setup any DSN.

In visual basic 6.0 IDE you have to add a reference to ADODB(ActiveX Database Ojects) library.You have to declare a public variable to reference a connection in the general declaration section.\nGo to www.planetsourcecode.com and you will find a lot of programming code for that.

Hi, your connection string is correct but your missing some parts..\n\nTake a look at the below code. I took out what I use in my ADO.NET library for this example..\n\nI have included a summary here:\nhttp://www.m0interactive.com/archives/2006/06/13/connect_to_a/\n\n\nCode:\n=========================================\ntry\n{\n    string database = "PersonDatabase.mdb";\n    string connectionString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + database;\n    OleDbConnection dbConnection = new OleDbConnection(connectionString);\n\n    string query = "SELECT FirstName FROM PersonTable WHERE PersonID = 1";\n    OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand(query, dbConnection);\n    string FirstName = "";\n    dbConnection.Open();\n    OleDbDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();\n\n    if (reader.Read())\n        FirstName = reader.GetString(0).ToString();\n    else\n        FirstName = "Empty";\n\n    dbConnection.Close();\n\n    Console.WriteLine(FirstName);\n}\ncatch (Exception e)\n{\n    return e.ToString();\n}\n========================\n\nGood Luck
