connect to MDB file over network

[adamr1001]

How can I make a VB application that will connect to an MDB file via the data jet engine over a network? Thanks for any help provided. Adam.

Yes you can, just be sure to use App.path when referencing files and databases.

You also have to tweak your installation package and make sure each computer has necessary dll's to run both the VB app and Access if they do not have them on the computer already.

If you need more detail just ask.
