Opening an Access application thru .Net

[ari]

Hey all,

I was just wondering if there is a way for me to open my access application in a vb.net application and when that access application is open, to close my vb.net application?

thanks in advance,
ari

Re: Opening an Access application thru .Net

Assuming you mean a full blown access app not just the db, all you need to
do is Process.Start(P athAndFileNameH ere);
this.Close();
If you want to open an Access db, you cna just use the OleDbConnection .

Not a thread but another process - which would be Microsoft Access.
