- 1) Create the database with Access, Data Manager, Visual Data or any

- 2) When the database structure is nearly ready, use DBtoVB to generate a
- code module. You can then call the module to create another similar
- but empty database
- 3) Add the DBtoVB modules to your project
- 4) Add a call to function Create_Database
- 5) Have the user to create new databases simply, without coding!
- 6) If you later change the structure of your database, simply run
- DBtoVB again - no coding whatsoever!
