No incompatibility... I am coding VB6 for DB access on a Win ME PC as we
speak.... Other than that, I have no idea.

A small distributable program that uses the Data control to work with
excel files works great under Win 95 and Win 98, but keeps getting an
error message "No Installable ISAM", then the program opens, but cannot
use the files. After installing VB6 on an machine with Win ME, the source
files could not run because the same message kept coming up.  Even writing
a new simple program with the data control couldn't run.
Trying with access data base files had the same result.  Changing the
connect between access and excel had no effect, either the files could not
be opened when record source property was attempted or the "no installable
ISAM" would come up.
Is there some incompatibility between Win ME and VB6? or what?
