    Refresh datalist contents

    I want to use a connection to an existing MS Access database, but I want
    to be able to change which table is used to fill the datalist, using
    VB6, at run time by late binding the datalist to the table. Using
    either an ADO connection or an ADODC control, I can fill the datalist OK
    the first time, but when I try to clear it and fill it from another
    table, the contents of the datalist do not change. I must be doing
    something really dumb here, but I can't figure it out. Any help would
    be appreciated.

    TIA,

    Martin

      There are some people here who use (or used to use) VB, in addition to
      Access, but it's primarily devoted to the Access product, not to all users
      of Jet databases. This question would definitely have a better chance of
      getting a good answer if asked in a Visual Basic newsgroup... USENET
      newsgroups comp.lang.basic .visual.misc and comp.lang.basic .visual.databas e
      are two; there are other sponsored newsgroups at news.microsoft. com (a free
      news server).

      I'm even having some difficulty remembering what a "datalist" is -- do you
      mean a List Box Control?

          Larry -

          Thanks for the quick response. No, the datalist is a separate control,
          in MSDATLST.OCX. I will try the other groups.

          Martin
