When I run Visual Basic 6.0, I got a error - 'Run time error 3170 - Could'nt find installable ISAM'.

I'm using Access 2000 as the database.

Here's a tutorial about using Excel in VB. The principles are the same for Access.

Also, an old Microsoft KB document says that the ISAM driver requires manual registration but I'm not sure this applies to your situation:
