ADO in VB

ADO in VB

Question:
I am trying to upgrade a program from DAO to ADO that will take a flat file and create a new database, add the needed fields and then populate the database. Does ADO have “CreateDatabase” funtionality?

ie.Set DAODBase=dbEngine.CreateDatabase_ (App.Path & "" & sDatabaseName)Set TDef = DAODBase.CreateTableDef _ (sTableDef)

Answer:
Look into the ADO Extensions library (ADOX), which has all sorts of functions that let you look and modify database structures.
