>Thanks for your help. I was using SQL server on the network. The following is my code to access the SQL server for the data and then display the data in the data grid. After the user make any changes and click "update", the data will be saved in the SQL server. Do you see any problems in the code?

>Dim db As Connection
>Dim WithEvents rsgrid As ADODB.Recordset
>
>Private Sub RSetInit(sSQL As String, db As Connection, rs As Recordset)
>'Get the record set
>
> db.Open "dsn=csudb"
> rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
> rs.Open sSQL, db, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
>
>Private Sub txtFamGet(sID As String)
