Goto Project-References. Add the Microsoft DAO 3.51 Object Library. And copy the follow code to your project.

Dim MyDB As Database, MySet As Recordset

' Open Database:
Set MyDB = OpenDatabase("d:\database.mdb")

'Create Recordset from query and load list with results:
Set MySet = MyDB.OpenRecordset("books") 'Open the Books table
MySet.MoveFirst
While MySet.EOF = False
Debug.Print MySet("name") 'Look the Name field
MySet.MoveNext
Wend

'Clean up - close objects:
MySet.Close
MyDB.Close

Set MySet = Nothing
Set MyDB = Nothing
