I think I got an idea for this dude... Get your assambly to be a dll in C#, and compile it to be COM visible, you have to set a GUID to your classes... and it will give you a lib (or was it tlb?) that you can use from old VB versions (tested on VB 6.0), now if I remember well... you can write the code for those Access forms in VB, so make them to call your assambly, that means that you will add a reference to that lib/tlb file. I think you need to add your assambly to the GAC too, not sure though.
I haven't done that myself beyond experimentation, and I'm not a big fan of that approach, I'm not sure if it's ok for access, but I think it will do. Google something on COM Visible with C# If I were you, I'd be doing my interface again, and using some ADO.NET... I know that that's not perfect either, but it will make things easier to maintain later. Theraot.
