Dabase Connection???

Hi

I'm trying to get a connection to a Access database using code. I got some example from the Internet:
Why is it that Visual Basic does not want me to Dim dbBIBI as "Database"?
Error: User-defined type not defined.

Dim dbBIBI As Database
Dim rsState As Recordset

Private Sub Form_Load()

Dim rsState As Recordset
Set dbBIBI = OpenDatabase("C:\PROGRAM _
FILES\VB98\BIBI.MDB")

SQLQuery = "SELECT * FROM Publishers WHERE _
State LIKE 'Pa*'"

Set rsState = dbBIBI.OpenRecordset(SQLQuery)

Do Until rsState.EOF = True
List1.AddItem rsState.Fields("State")
rsState.MoveNext
Loop

Set rsState = Nothing

End Sub

you need to add a microsoft DAO object on your reference object go to the project menu and select References and look for Microsoft DAO Object.

Thanks so much!
