I have created an database application using VB and Access 2000. In the program I have created connection to the database using DSN (Data Source Names).I am wondering that when I install the application on the end Users system i will have to create the DSN on his system too. How can I include the DSN creation code(I know the code) so that it runs when the application is installed. Will it be OK if I include the DSN creating code in the Package and Deployment forms (by editing them offcourse.). ?
Or is it a better idea to use OLE connections to the database? How can I gaurd againts errors arising if the user changes the name of the folder that contains the database.
Thanks
