View the contents of a dBASE file (.DBF). Good example of how to use ListView and ADO together. Code can be easily modified to handle MSAccess files or even CSV files. Only thing particular about dBASE as opposed to other databases is the manner in which the Connection and SELECT strings are created.
oConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft dBASE Driver (*.dbf)};" & _
"DriverID=277;" & _
"Dbq=c:\somepath"
Then specify the filename in the SQL statement:
oRs.Open "Select * From user.dbf", oConn, , ,adCmdText
Hope someone finds this useful ... Cheers
