    ODBC connnection call fails

    Currency field type

    A table in my Access database has a few fields which are formatted as currency. This field type is only called Currency in Access. However, when I do a query of this table, the field type returned with DAO is the number 4 (dbLong) and not the number 5 (dbCurrency) How could that be? Thanks

If I add the button column when I load the...

    Flexgrid in VB.NET

    Thanks Andy. Can I ask two questions? 1. There is a vertical blank band on the leftmost side of the datagridview. Why is it there and how can I hide it? 2. If I enter a cell and change it there, which event do I use to update the data? Paul

    Flexgrid in VB.NET

    I have been using the flexgrid control in VB6 and editing data by placing another control like a text box over the relevant cell, which is quite easy.
