Hi all,

In Ken Getz's Access 2000 developer handbook vol I, ch8 p521, he mentioned
that

"...form data manipulation in an mdb file will require DAO knowledge in
Access 2000 (we think that's the only place in Access 2000 that you're
required to use DAO)..."

Is this still true in later versions?

Thanks,

Ben

In reality, if you're strictly working with Access files (i.e.: not
connecting to external data sources), you should probably be using DAO for
everything. Ken was probably caught up in Microsoft's Marketing department's
mistaken belief that ADO was replacing DAO. It didn't.
 
Doug,

Thanks.
