Getting msg: 'Unrecognized database format'

[Ireland1978]

I'm trying to write a program in VB6 that connects to an MS Access 2003 database. I have entered the database name into the correct place in the properties bar on the right.

Then as soon as I click on the RecordSource drop-down arrow a message box pops up saying:
Unrecognized database format 'filepath'

Does anyone have any ideas what's going wrong here?

Probably a service pack issue, do a search here on your problem and you should find several posts regarding this.
I beleive you need to be at service pack 5, but 6 is available.

Or you may need the latest MDAC installed.
