ODBC object

[Trying2learn]

Hi,,

Hi,

i have been searching the web for weeks to try & find a solution to my problem.

Here is my question, my wife has made a database in access, so far so good, now i would like to make a standalone prog in mmf2 so that she can access, add, delete, etc to her base from any PC, with or without access installed. Is it possible, & could anyone tell me how to do it, if its not to much hassle. I know it probably is but i thought i might ask anyway.

Hi Jason,

Yes you can do this in MMF2, you should check my ODBC document, it refers to MMF1.5 but should hopefully still give you some pointers to what you need to do.
