Access them in VB? Do you mean Access' VBA or do you mean the separte Visual
Basic product? If the latter, it'd be best to ask your question in a
newsgroup devoted to VB, not one devoted to Access.

You can access an MS Access database directly from VB, depending on the
drivers you have installed and your operating system. In Windows 2000, for
example, your have to register the Access database via the "Database
Administrator".

However, you haven't suggested any reason why you cannot fulfill your
requirements purely with MS Access coding (known as VBA: Visual Basic for
Access")
