Has anyone tried to accomplish this? We have a freeware program that was written in VB 6 that we use to view Microsoft Access snapshot files independent of Access. I was just wondering if anyone knows how to view a snapshot file in VB .NET.



I did some looking online and couldn't find anything.



;-D

I haven't done this, but I would think that it would be relatively easy through the Access Interop.  If nothing else you could always export the report through Access to an external Snapshot file.  Now as far as viewing the file, you may have to use Access in order to see it.  We try to use something a little more mainstream such as PDFs or something that can be viewed without a lot of work...which is also something that you could do through Access.  Export the reports to a PDF instead of a snapshot file.  Just some ideas...may not be good ones, but they are ideas anyway
