Creating a database in access using the LabVIEW Database Connectivity Toolkit

[Gerardo09]

I am having trouble getting started on how to use the LabVIEW Database Connectivity Toolkit to build a database using MS Access. Any information on how to get started with this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Have you tried the example programs shipped with the toolkit?  what are you trying to do, connect to an existing db, add a new table, add a entry, perform a query?  There are many options here.  I have connected to access many times with the toolkit.  Give us a few details on what you need to do?

My ultimate goal is to be able to connect to a db, search the database for a matching 6 digit number, and write some information to that corresponding row. For now, I would just like to be able to connect to MS Access so that I can write to an exsisting db.

Look at te database connect example, I usually use the UDL connection method and save the uld file with all connection information needed to connect to the specific database for my application.
