Thanks David and dilettante, Four issues I need to pursue. 1. The link of dilettante is insightful and I will go through that process. Must I presume that the reference to 32 bit is to VB6 or to the database? 2. David gave and ADO solution which I will test. However, I need a DAO one. As far...

Maybe I should backtrack a little first. I am on windows 7 presently and developing with VB6. Access is becoming too small for my purposes. 1. Is MySql a database with all the necessary functions access has and does it have integrity for big data? 2. Why should I use MariaDB if I only need a...

Thank you all for your valuable contributions. One more question. Do I need to use phpmyadmin with MariaDB on windows 7 or the workbench? PK Odendaal

Thank you so much Chris. 1. I presume Linux Ubuntu is ok for the operating system. 2. Are the drivers for MySql and MariaDB the same? 3. Is it easy to port the database to another server should I wish to do so later? PK Odendaal
