Hi folks,
Could some of you help out this newbie to PB? I'm trying to connect to an Access database using:

#db
OpenDatabase(#db, "C:\sampledb\Northwind.mdb",,)

This gets me an syntax error message.
The answer to this and any other helpful thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanx, Pete

Try:

Code: Select all

OpenDatabase(#db, "C:\sampledb\Northwind.mdb","","")

The empty strings are needed.
