Question VB3 and SQL Server
Does anyone know if it is possible for an application written in VB3 to work with SQL Server?

I have an VB3 application which utilizes DAO to read and write to and from an Access 2 database, and it uses bound controls... I am being asked if I can replace the Access 2 database with an SQL Server database and modify the VB3 application so that it now reads and writes to and from the SQL Server database!!

Does anyone know if this is even possible? Or recommended?!

Along the same lines, does anyone know if it's possible to use ADO with VB3?

Thanks in advance for any assistance provided...

Dan L.

I am glad I don't have your job!

I suggest attempting to port the VB app to VB 6 or .Net if you have the resources available.
