Author ------ Peter G Jones Zero-1 Software Ltd. PO Box 4475 Christchurch New Zealand Phone/Fax: 64, 3, 352 6481 CIS 100032,40 MDB->BAS v 1.2 14 Sep 94 ------------------------- This is a simple VB app that reads the structure of a MS Access MDB database file and produces the necessary VB code to create the file. It handles all of the usual field and table attributes including attached tables, version 1.0 and 1.1, query defs etc. I also optionally produces documentation of the MDB in the form of source code comments. Usage ----- Typically I create an MDB file with Access and when I am happy with the structure of the MDB I use this to generate the code. If you dont save yourself at least 1 hours coding with this handy little tool I'd be most surprised. I know it's saved me at least 20 hours this month! Requirements ------------ This unregistered version requires the Access DLLs and the common dialog VBX. To use the generated code you will of course need VB 3 Pro. Limitations ----------- I have not tried this with version 2 MDB's. If you have the compatability layer installed it may work though provided you do not select the Version 1.0 option. The unregistered version will only allow you to print the generated code. Registration allows saving of code to file as well as viewing on screen. Registration & Source Code -------------------------- The registration fee is US$20. For this, you get the compiled version as well as the full source code! CIS SWREG is 3070. Disclaimer ---------- I take no responsibility for anything that doesn't work and full responsibility for everything that does! And if you think you can sue me then think again! I run faster than any lawyer I know! Revision History ---------------- * Version 1.0, June 1994 Initial public release. * Version 1.1, July 20 1994 Altered code generation to use a single set or arrays rather than two arrays for each table. This fixed memory problems. Added langauge support combo box. Minor fixes to generated code. SWREGification. * Version 1.2, September 14, 1994 Altered status display for speed!
