Open Access database

[Hai Ly Hoang]

Hi,
Using datasource (config through control-panel), I
can open Acccess datafile with ODBC.
However, it's troublesome when i want to let user choose which Access
datafile to open.
Can i open an access datafile with ODBC without using datasource ? (VC++)

Thanks a lot !

Hi Hai,

You Can open an access datafile with ODBC without using datasource, this
requires lot of coding to be done.
To begin let me give you an Kb article on Configure ODBC Data Sources on
the Fly Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 110507

Please let me know if you do require further assistance...
