Mr. Hanky
Thanks for your response I guess I will need to reword it
What I am trying to do is I have the login form and created a database. The database has a table called "user with username and password", what I am looking for is the code to do this.
In the database table called "user in username (jsmith) Password" (jsmith) when the user types in the login form user name (Jsmith) and then the password (jsmith) Click ok, it goes to the database, looks at the table user field, username and password. Checks the names against those names and says ok form 2, show else msgbox "incorrect user name or password" I have done this in VB6 but I am not quite getting it in vb2005.

You're kidding right I would just name it 'users'.
Regardless, it is basically the same way in 2005. Please post your code so we can see where you might be going wrong.
