Create a database when a user logs in for the first time

[dan]

Hi,

Looking for some ideas ? ADO / RDO ?
I need to develope a visual basic application that when a user launches the
application it checks to see if the datase for the user is created if the
user does not have a DATABASE it creates one then creates a table in the
Access Database.

I found these two examples.

Here are two ADO methods:
http://www.veign.com/vrc_codeview.asp?type=app&id=108
http://www.veign.com/vrc_codeview.asp?type=app&id=22

Are these the best way to create the databases? Or the Zipped up file
method that was mentioned in a previous post?

It was probably me who mentioned the "Zipped Up" method. It is better if
a) You are already using code to extract for ZIP files.
b) It is a horribly complex database, possibly with some initial data
c) You can't be arsed to write the creation code
d) The db design is not finalized, changing the resource *may* be easier
than altering the code
e) Personal preference - this is tythe most importqant

Of course zipping is not compulsory but it does reduce the size of the EXE
(if you have stuck it in as a resource), you could just have the db as a
seperate file, perhaps rename it and then make a copy when a fresh database
is required.
