[AccessD] Access VB question

Access VB questionHi Jarad:

Assuming you are using ADO-OLE and have your MS Recordset object Library
attached here is the code I would use:

Public Sub GetConnected()
    Dim gconROD As ADODB.Connection
    Dim gstrConnection As String
    Dim gsDBPFName As String

    On Error GoTo Err_GetConnected

    gsDBPFName = \\Myserver\MyDBDirectory\rod.mdb

    gstrConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
                    "Persist Security Info=False;" & _
                    "Data Source=" & gsDBPFName

    Set gconROD = New ADODB.Connection
    gconROD.Open gstrConnection

Exit_GetConnected:
    Exit Sub

Err_GetConnected:
    ShowErrMsg ("GetConnected")
    Resume Exit_GetConnected

End Sub

This is of course overly simplified but...

  Does anyone know how to programmatically open an access database in VB,
bypassing the startup options?
