Trouble Opening a Recordset

[bkrumm]

I'm trying to open a recordset in a database but I keep getting and Error 13, Type Mismatch and I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong. I've checked to ensure that the DAO 3.5 Library is checked in the Reference section. I'm working with VB5 and Win95. Here's my Code

Dim SQLStatement as string
SQLStatement = "800000_PartNumbers"
set Ws = DBEngine.Workspaces(0)
set OldDb = Ws.OpenDatabase("C:\Databases\msds_database.mdb")
set RcSet = OldDb.OpenRecordset(SQLStatement, dbOpenDynaset)

Hi,
I am sure you have set OLDdb as database.
It seems that 800000_PartNumbers is name of the table in the database.
Please modify your sqlstatement to
SQLStatement = "Select * from 800000_PartNumbers"
Or simply forget SQLStatement and type
set RcSet = OldDb.OpenRecordset("800000_PartNumbers", dbOpenDynaset)

I also assume that you have declared RcSet as Recordset.

Goodluck
