Thanks for the feedback, I might opt for the MyVBQl because of the size of
installation/ease of installation in comparison to hassling with ODBC stuff.
However, this is not critical but certainly makes my life a little easier,
with ADO I can set the datasource of a grid to the ado recordset and then
any changed made to the grid are automatically updated in the database, can
this still be done with the MyVBQl?
Thanks
Warren
