SUMMARY
The code sample in this article demonstrates how to set up and use a SubQuery on a Microsoft Access version 2.0 database (NWIND.MDB) and on a Microsoft Access version 1.x database (BIBLIO.MDB from Visual Basic version 3.0).
NOTE: For the NWIND.MDB database, the code sample requires that you have Microsoft Access version 2.0 and the Microsoft Jet 2.0/Visual Basic 3.0 Compatibility Layer.
For more information about the Compatibility layer, please see the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Using the SubQuery in Visual Basic
- Start a new project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default.
Load the following into a text editor and save it as SUBQ.FRM. Then load the SUBQ.FRM form into your Visual Basic project and set it as your start-up form. Edit each statement that appears on more than one line so that it appears on one, single line before loading the form into Visual Basic. Also double check the paths to the database files.
