database connection????????

[mohnishghodekar]

please help me,I am doing a project on database management system using visual basic 6.0.........How do i make the connection between data object and the database directly without using the database name option present in the data properties box???I am using MS Access database.

[~Phenom~]

which database r u using? ms access or oracle?
u have to use DSN while doing with ODBC.
if u dont want to use DSN( if i have understood u clearly), use jet engines instead of ODBC.
