using System;
using ADOX;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Class1
{
[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
ADOX.CatalogClass cat = new ADOX.CatalogClass();
cat.Create("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" +
"Data Source=D:\\AccessDB\\NewMDB.mdb;" +
"Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=5");
Console.WriteLine("Database Created Successfully");
cat = null;
}
}
}
But many thanks for the embedded version - the trick just works for all esoterism file formats we need in our projects.
And a special thanks :-O for the c style one line solution. That is a real 5 too.
