It's not going to be easy....you would need to know the file format for the version of access used - and that's not open information.
Why would you not want to use ADO or ODBC anyway?
It is a challenge by my OO doctor. i searched all the web and in all the books i have. i didnt find any.Originally posted by Fordy

Yes. Double click the mdb file to open it in Microsoft Access.
Also see OLE-DB(which ADO uses) and connection to Access via OLE/COM as Mr xw suggested.
