    ISAM Error

    Well folks, I'm back again. I've gotten this error before when I made the VB
    interface an EXE. But since I was only made it executable just to get a
    rough measurement of it working, it wasn't a big concern. Now that I'm
    nearing the finish of it, the error, "Couldn't find installible ISAM" comes
    up after runtime, whenever I move between forms. I can still go through each
    form. I ahven't tried to enter in any type of test data yet. But I think
    earlier on I did get this error before but I was able to enter data in, but
    I'm not quite sure.

    I have no idea what this error is. I have an idea what it could be the cause
    of it, but I don't want to guess what I don't know.

    Which version of VB? What database engine are you using?

    VB 6.0 SP5 fixes one possible cause of this error:

    If you're using Jet 4.0, you may need to update that as well:

        Re: ISAM Error

        I think I know what the problem was. When I installed Visual Basic on my
        computer, I may or may not have updated it with the Visual Studio SP 4. I
        believe I may have. And When I went and check on the reason for the error,
        it may have been because of SP 4. But I'm go to go; I downloaded SP 5.
