i am not getting that adodb.connection.. so what should i have to do for this..

shashim gowda8,
Sorry for late reply. I have always used the 4 line code of Mr. Pierre for creating MS Access database and tables, and I love that code. Its here

Dim tbl As New Table, cat As New ADOX.Catalog

' 1) Create the DataBase
     cat.Create "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & App.Path & "\Clients.mdb" & ";"
' 2) Create Table name "ClientsInfo"
     tbl.Name = "ClientsInfo"
' 3) Add 3 Fields
     tbl.Columns.Append "Name", adVarWChar, 50 'Text
     tbl.Columns.Append "Age", adInteger 'Number
     tbl.Columns.Append "Address", adLongVarWChar 'Memo
' 4) Save the Table to the DataBase
     cat.Tables.Append tbl

About setting property to AllowZeroLength, I do believe that by default this property to Yes/True so I don't think you will need extra code for that.

Hope this helps

thank u so much for ur reply.. and i will try that....
thanks again........
