SUMMARY
=======
This article describes how to create an Access 2000 (Jet 4.0) database in Visual
C++ 6.0. To create an Access 2000 database, it is necessary to use DAO 3.6 by
setting the version of MFC to 6.01 at run time. For additional information,
please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
236991 PRB: Unrecognized Database Format Error with Access 2000 Database
Specify the DAO version explicitly as 0x40 in the CDaoDatabase::Create() method
as described in the MORE INFORMATION section below.
NOTE: Creating an Access 2000 database requires Jet 4.0 and DAO 3.6 installed on
the computer. Jet 4.0 is installed with MDAC 2.1 and Office 2000. DAO 3.6 is
installed with Office 2000.
