I've just picked up a new book called 'Beginning Visual Basic 6 Database
Programming'. I'm trying to create a program like the one in the book, but
the list of 'Available Add-Ins' in the Add-In Manager is blank. How can I get
the add-ins I need? One add-in I need is the "VB 6 Data Form Wizard".

Thanks

The user interface and object model for Access and VB6 are different -- if
you are working in Access (as your question being in this Access newsgroup
might imply) then using a VB6 book will inevitably lead you to do things
that do not work. You can't develop VB6 Forms in Access, if that's what you
expected to do.

There are still a number of Microsoft-sponsored newsgroups for VB6 and
earlier, and the Usenet newsgroup comp.lang.basic.visual.misc used to be a
good one -- there was a comp.lang.basic.visual.databases but I think it just
died from lack of use.
