I want to make an application which will be distributed to employees on a network to install on their desktops. The application will need a database, but only needs to store (extensive) information per employee, and thus does not need to be centralised. I thus want the database to ship with the install package created by VB6 - going to each workstation and setting up an ODBC connection is not an option. Is there a way in VB to make an application with it's own (e.g. Access) database which is installed with the package?

Yes.
U can create an Access Database in ur application.
To distribute this database along with the installation kit, u will have to add this file when u create the installation kit with "Create setup" utility.
