Data Environment Example

DataEnvironment is one item that is hard to find
Detail information about how to use it. I truly
Believe VB's DataEnvironment is the way to go
But using it takes time. This program will go
over some way's to make your data-environment more Flexable during run-time operations that is not usually covered in the majority books available to users.

Assumes
