"Unrecognized Database Format" Error Message
If you got "Uncrecognized Database" Format"
error message,
it's probably because the access database version that you
work with
isn't compatible with your DAO reference.
To add the
compatible reference
to DAO:
from VB menu choose
Project-> References, mark the Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
check box, and press OK.
If you Don't have
Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library reference, click on browse,
and select the
file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Dao\dao360.dll
(If you
have Access 2000 installed in your computer you have this file.)
This will add Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library reference to
your project.
Now mark it and press OK.
