Get Connection String here:

Change the Path to Server Path.

Hi,,

Add "Microsoft ActiveX objects 2.0" References to the project. Share the Folder in Server With Full Access.
use this code:


Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim AC As New ADODB.Connection
With AC
.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\\ServerName\ShareFolder\db1.mdb;Persist Security Info=False"
.Open
End With
ssql = "Select * from MyTable"
Set rs=Nothing
RS.Open ssql,AC
