I am new to VARPG and have a question about using Microsoft Access database files with the ODBC Interface part in designing a standalone application. The IBM manual says the Microsoft ODBC SDK is should be installed. It also doesn't go into any detail about how to go about setting up or saving the database in Access. I have also heard that you only need to have MS Access installed. Which is true? Also, when designing the tables in Access, is there any special properties that need to be in place when it is saved, or is the database saved as you would any other database you create with Access? Once it is created, do you then just go ahead and bind the Access table's columns in the VARPG program? As you can tell, I'm a bit confused about the complete process of creating this link. Can anyone help me to get through the fog? Thanks a bunch! _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com +--- | This is the RPG/400 Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to RPG400-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to RPG400-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to RPG400-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
