access thread: Finding the current path


Message #1 by <enzaux@y...> on Wed, 24 Oct 2001 05:19:51 +0800
   What is the similar command in Visual Basic's App.Path in MS Access?



Thanks,



Enzo

The .Name property of the DAO Database object returns the full path of the

database.  You can use the CurrentDB function to return a DAO database

object representing the currently open database.



So, the equivalent expression is CurrentDB.Name.

Thanx Roy!  I was wondering about DAO, is DAO a kind of dbase coding or

connection like ADO (oledb) and odbc?  I'm really confused with these

things?  I hope you could exlplain a little if you have the patience :)

thanks!!!

Nothing like that old Enzo, DAO was simply Microsoft's predecessor to ADO.
