Create an Access Database File

Can anyone please tell me how I can create an Access Database in a specific
directory (not memory), presumably by using oledb.

Regards

This cannot be done with OLEDB, you will have to use ADOX.

Hi Genie,

set a reference to COM adox ext 2.x for dll and security
\\\
Dim catNewDB As New ADOX.Catalog
catNewDB.Create("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; " & "Data
Source=C:\db1.mdb")
///

I hope this helps a little bit?
