you can create an odbc by putting an ado.. control on a form, using the properties dialog to build a connection to your data. you can do this on a startup form or copy the connection string you create and use it in code.
either way should work for you.

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 [ip address of router on other side of dsl]

Maybe the ideas will be put to use here.
We are told that we can all be easily...
rainbow,
you can open the recordset read the field into a variable, and then place it in your picture frame.
Hope This Helps

Hi Kelly,
Here is a snippet of code I use to export tables and such into Excel.
You don't have to create an instance of Excel or open one either.
As for the special formatting, I do that in Macro from within excel and just run the macro's before I send the files out.
Hope this helps, If not...

I have an Access 97 database as a backend.
VB6 Code supplies the GUI.
I am having trouble changing the field type in a table.
