Have you learned VB or VB.net ?!

whatever...

It's very simple to learn how to use Access with VB, i think it's cool to learn the basic features of VB and how to conect with a database.

But there is an alert: WHEN YOU GOT ABLE TO CODE WITH VB STOP WITH ACCES (Access = no future)

You will need experience on strongest databases like Oracle or Sql Server.

A big bompany will not give you a cool job if you don't know how to use a big database.

Another hint:
FOCUS ON SQL ! it is the key to understand coding on every database!

Don't know if you're talking about VB or VB.NET but I agree with PH, to make a connection to a database isn't difficult to learn.
Access is pretty good for personal application and you can train yourself making connection to, but since you understand the mechanism it's not more difficult to switch to another database like SQLServer or anything else (the main difference is the connection string ;)).

oh yes, it is very easy to cennect vb to database(access)... there should be an object, forget the name now, i think its data controller which connects to JET and other database engines.
