I am using Visual Basic 6 and MS Access 2000. I set the database password from Tools -> Security -> Set database password menu in MS Access 2000. Then in visual basic I have added reference of "Microsoft Activex Data Objects Library 2.0". Created a Connection object variable and in the Form load event, set its properties as:

Con.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\whatever.mdb; Jet OLEDB: Database Password=mypassword;"

Con.Open

When I run the application, it gives me error that "Could not find installable ISAM"

Is there snything wrong with the connection string or what?? Please help. Thanks in advance.

This error can have many causes and you did not post more code. I know there are tons of ways to write a connection string but your looks a little unfamiliar. Anyway. Check msSupport for your case...
