hi all
can any one tell me how to find the attribute of a column retrived from a database.I have tried with the following code.It works perfectly with all the enumvalues such as adFldIsNullable,adFldFixed etc. but not with adFldKeyColumn...can any one can help me out please??
the code is as follows

*********************************************
For Each field In rs1.Fields
If CBool(field.Attributes And adFldKeyColumn) Then
MsgBox ("Primary Key")
End If
Next field
*************************************

Here the example how to change properties

Dim FlatCat As New ADOX.Catalog

FlatCat.ActiveConnection = _
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=c:\data\juveniledata.mdb;"

Set objNewColumn = New ADOX.Column
objNewColumn.Name = "Additional Information"
objNewColumn.Attributes = adColFixed And Not adColNullable
objNewColumn.Type = adVarWChar
objNewColumn.DefinedSize = 30
objNewTable.Columns.Append objNewColumn
objNewColumn.Properties("Jet OLEDB:Allow Zero Length").Value = True
objNewColumn.Properties("Jet OLEDB: Allow Zero Length").Value = True
objNewColumn.Properties("Default").Value = """"""


I think to get atributes you can get as
msgbox(objNewColumn.Attributes)
