Set form's RecordSource to Btrieve without ODBC

G

Guest

I have a form where I would like to set the recordsource to a Btrieve 6.15
table. The company that designed this table for our database did some
rediculous things like storing 99/99/9999 in a date field so I can't use the
ODBC method because it choke.

Can anyone post some code that will set a forms recordsource to a Btrieve
table without using ODBC? I would like to use the API or even
ClassicSoftware's Btrieve control. I have downloaded a demo of the Classic
Software control, but can't seem to get the form recordsource or
combo/listbox rowsource thing going either.

I have not used Classic's controll but you might download the
Pervasive SDK which includes ActiveX controls. These should allow you
to access your data much faster than the API. You can download at
www.pervasive.com

Also if you need a btrieve utility to export or create DDF files you
can take a look at btsearch at www.nssdd.com
