Connecting to a database

[lambertm]

I’m writing an application in VBA – Autocad 2004 – and I need to programmatically connect to a database. How is it done?

What kind of DB, Access, SQL etc?

How are you connecting into it DAO, ADO, ODBC, CAO?

I have three papers written for ATP that address connecting to a database using the DAO model.

In fact we were in the middle of this ATP course when things crashed.

I could send them to you for reading and personal use. I would hope that from there you would be able to connect and do specifically what you need.

It's not a trivial process.

Mike,
If you look in the previous post, there is already a link to a bootlegged version of AUGI's copyrighted ATP material.

I have edited out the link to the illegally posted ATP material.

I am also looking for reference material to connect VB to Access. Would it be possible for me to get a copy of your ATP class handouts? Thanks

ive attached a dvb file that has several functions that can function as an example.
hope this helps
