Applications Referencing the ADOX Library Fail Under Windows Vista

Fellow Access MVP Bill Mosca noticed the following article:  Applications Referencing the ADOX Library Fail Under Windows Vista.

I once tried using ADOX to reset the seed of an autonumber primary key on a table at a clients but it died on some message so I never bothered with it again.   See Resetting AutoNumbers by Allen Browne.   As far as I know this is the only useful thing that ADO does that DAO doesn't when it comes to Jet databases.

Actually this is not only Vista problem, it is the same for win XP, 2000, win 98, so this is ADOX incompatibility problem, and it starts from the first adox version. You have to use late bindings or use DAO :-))
