[AccessD] Conditional compiling

If it's VB code issues do you have VB 6.0 available?  I compile routines that won't work in A97 into an ActiveX DLL. Then it doesn't matter which Access version because the code runs in the DLL not Access.  Of course this is another file to distribute with your app.

Greetings,

I've got an app that needs to run on A2K and A97.  I've got some code
that uses user-defined enumerated types and some WithEvents
declarations, neither of which are supported by A97.  Is there a way to
conditionally compile the code depending on the Access version?  I know
you can use conditional statements, but I don't know if they can be used
in this way.  Right now, I'm supporting two versions of the app, one for
each version of Access, but it's making updating a real pain.  I'd also
like to be able to create conditions based on the Windows version.  I
imagine both are similar, if they are even possible.

Any info and samples would be appreciated.

Seth
