Look at using DAO, ADO, or pretty much anyother combination of those three
letters. These are libraries/interfaces that allow you to talk with a
database. If the database client SW is installed on your computer, then
you can probably drop an ActiveX Refnum control on the panel, and popup
on it to choose the ActiveX class. Browsing this list you will find
something like MS Database Access. Select that, and then on the diagram,
you can start feeling your way along through opens, setting/getting
properties, invoking methods, and closing references of course. It may be
wise to read the documentation that came with the DB, and it should cover
the bas
ics of AX communications to the DB.
