In my C++-application, I connect to an MS-Access Database...under Win2000 and WinXP it works fine but under Win98 returns the Access-Database no values...
I have to initialise the database in the ODBC-Datasource->could it be possible that the Win98-ODBC-driver is to old,is there a possibility to update the driver?

Yes it is quite possible that the ODBC driver is too old or has a bug. You don't mention which version of Access your database is in, which I would guess could also have some impact. To get updated drivers go to [url]http://www.microsoft.com/data/[/url]

Are you using your code to create a DSN? If yes, take a look at possible differences in the registry where the ODBC stuff is stored.

Glad you got it working.

If you downloaded MDAC 2.6 or higher, the jet files are not contained in the standard download file, you need to download a separate jet file.
