Ok, I'll try that. Thanks for your help.

> Personally, I prefer not to create the database itself.  To do requires 
that
you load additional DDLs that manage the data definition language 
components
of the JET database.  What I prefer to do is to keep an entirely empty 
copy
of a JET database, then copy it to a name I really want to use; then, use
straight forward SQL to populate it.

This is admittedly less powerful than employing the JET specific DLLs that
manage the JET database, but it is simple.  However, you prefer to use the
native drivers for JET, you should be able to find documentation for
creation of a new JET database by looking for the DAO object in one of the
MSDN libraries. Just remember that DAO is a COM object....

For MSDN or MS SQL, you can create a new database and then restore the
content from database backup -- all by issuing tSQL script.
