Running asynchronous query in MS Access

Question

I\'m trying to run some heavy queries asynchronously, but can\'t figure out how to do it for an .mdb file.

This is what I have so far:

 Dim wrksp As Work

I can speak about executing this things against a JET data source however I have used this against SQL server so it should work. The trick is to use ADO and fire the execute statement with the option adAsyncExecute. I don’t have the exact code to hand but here is a rough version off the top of my head

Dim DbCon as ADODB.Connection

Dim dbCmd as ADODB.Command

DbCon.ConnectionString=”Your connection string”

With dbCmd
.commandtype= adCmdText

.commandtext=”Your long SQL update statement”
.ActiveConnection=dbcon

.Execute , , adAsyncExecute

End With
