This is a resend.

I have created ODBC DSN as suggested by Mr. Praba. Are the steps below correct?

Setting ODBC
____________

Control panel --> ODBC -->user dsn --> add-->
microsoft text driver --> Data source name test.txt
--> select directory--> mydirectory (which contains test.txt)

In Visual Basic
____________

1) I create 'form1' with 'ok' button'
2) On click 'ok' button - The processes that I would like to invoke are:-
a) read input text file and reformat the data into structures (separate fields)and save data in another text file.
b) I want to call 'form2' to display the data in crystal report format.

Can you further advice me how to do part b).
For info I am using visual basic 5.0 enterprise

Thank you.
