EOF and BOF

i developed a program using VB6, that deals with an access database, using mdac 2.6, now everything is ok, but when i run it on windows 89, mdac 2.6 as well i have this problem

using a select statment, when i get one output record from a table full of records, i get BOF .
while on Windows 2000 i always get (not EOF)

and in all my code am using
if not lrs.EOF then
......
end if

Should i change all my code to use
if (not lrs.EOF) or (not lrs.BOF) then
....
end if

or is there a different solution
Note: Windows 89 is running as a virtual machine

What exactly is the error you get and where?

print the value for lsr.eof and check.
Actually
if not lrs.EOF then
......
end if

is ok.

well when i changed curser type to adOpenForwardOnly and when getting one output record, i got the following: BOF = False , EOF = False

other wise i get BOF = true, EOF = False

Thats is when running the application on windows 98 , i know operating system has nothing to do, but i dont know whats wring with mdac in there

when running on windows 2000 , i always get EOF = False and BOF = False

thanks any way

Hi..

It is something to do with os as it seems though i am not sure but has not much of worry as I prefer to set the pointer of the data to my wish when ever i create or Fill data in recordset using the movefirst and movelast so it work my way and not os way.

Thank for Answer acceptance though.
