Here is the problem. I am making a program (a game actually) where I want to use a Microsoft Access 2000 database (using MS Access XP) to hold the data for the program, which I am coding in Visual Basic 6. I have never used third-party databases in VB programming before this and thus still have to learn a lot in that regard. When I try to use the database using the Data control it says that the database format is not acceptable. This is because the DB is essentially too new.
Can anyone direct me as to how exactly I can incorporate this database into my program without resorting to the home-grown database methods? When searching for solutions on the net all I can find our expertsexchange questions (but not the solutions, of course). I have Visual Studio .NET 2003 too, if that is any help (as in I should develop it in that environment). Also, does anyone have any nice online resources I can use (newbie, probably) to help with database programming in VB6. Thanks.
