Hi.

I have VB6 project with Access db throughADO2.8.
Some of my users complain than sometimes they observe data lost.
As I see that is Vista shadow copying the database mdb file.
The OS replaces it sometimes (in case of errors by its opinion).
What can I do? How to turn off the shadow copying of db file
(programmatically)?

Thanks in advance.

Shadow Copy would NOT be my first thought as to the problem. That you said
"in case of errors" to me there is either one or more trappable errors that
maybe aren't being handled or your app is crashing. You other comment of "by
its opinion" makes no sense whatsoever. Perhaps you can provide some
clarification and maybe then someone can help.
