I suppose you could connect if the database is ODBC compliment. You would
need the odbc driver and the Windows version of the client components
because Visual Basic won't run or install on Linux.

hi
Anyone know of a way that a database on a linux box can be
accessed by visual basic running on a windows box?
If not - I heard there is visual basic for linux - are the
exact same components available to windows vb available
for linux or do they have to be created?
