" Unrecognized Database Format 'xxx.mdb' " error message.....

Hello All,

I know this issue has be addressed a gazillion times in the past, but
none of the offered solutions seem to work for me.

I get this error when I attempt to pull down the RecordSource option
in my GUI. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can solve this?

I am running VB 6 with Service Pack 5 and Access 2000 (9.0.2720)

In advance, thanks so much,

Mike
