how to open an MSAccess Object using .NET ????

Hello there.. This is tony..

I'm an access developer and i'm learning .NET to migrate my appz..

I've got a question.. how can i open a MSAccess Form using VB.NET..

I mean i have an application in MSAccess, my idea is open the MSAccess (hidden) and thru vb.Net call its forms and reports to be opened...

i think that i need to open the MSaccess Data base in a hidden way, and after that send a command to open a form.

I'll really aprecciate any idea.. =) THANKS

    You can control Access via COM, but there's nothing built in to the language to interact with an Access application while running outside of that. You can use Process.Start to start an Access database app, but you won't be able to interact with it.

    You can open the database, you cannot open the form.

    i'm thinking on openning the MSAccess DB and send a parameter to a Function located in the MS Access DB, that function may open the form...
