Hi,

Are you using MSaccess?

If not, Use it if you can.

Tell me about it.

No I am not using MS Access. &nbsp;The file is a flat file. &nbsp; &nbsp;I used Access to create the file in the format that I wanted , but needed to do to much to it to continue in access. &nbsp;The records are still in a table in Access in the correct layout. &nbsp;I could import the table and then...???<br />
<br />
It seems like such a simple thing that I want to do, I thought maybe I had overlooked a magic command????<br />

If at all possible, I would like to update the records in VB and not in Access. &nbsp;<br />

I have opened a file for random. &nbsp;I have defined the record structure. &nbsp;I am doing some manipulations on some of the fields in each record. &nbsp;I am using GET (procedure) Put. &nbsp;The problem I am having is getting the program to read each record and perform the manipulation on each record in the file. &nbsp;I have tried using a variable for the[recnumber] &nbsp;part &nbsp;of GET and PUTand putting the file in a loop. &nbsp;This does not work. &nbsp;There has to be an easy way to do this. &nbsp;Any Suggestions?

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
