Hi,

in the past i built a connection to a as/400 table using the ado property box, thorough an odbc.

A)Do anyone know how to make the same using a connection string in the vb6 code?

B)By this way is it possible to avoid use of odbc?

Thanks,

Stefano.

Microsoft has a server program that allows you to connect (although can't remember what it's called - it should be on the server page on their websight)

If you add an ADODC control, you can use the build connection string to get the ODBC conenction string.

Otherwise you're stuck with a dsn and Client Access (which I hate->numerous conflicts, slowed MS apps down to a crawl, practically took over the systems).
