Does anyone have Visual Cafe 3 for the PC? I'm trying to devloping a prorgam that links itself and displays data from a MS Access database. Firstly, is this possible, and secondly, how do you go about doing it?
I've already done said prgroam in Visual Basic, but have no idea how to convert it (I'm planning on writing it from scratch).

I'm completely new to the Visual Cafe interface - I've just nabbed it off a coverdisc.
Sorry for being unclear about before - what I'm trying to do is to simply link data from a MS Access database and display it in a custom amde program in java. But don't worry, I've being messing around with Visual J++ all day and found I can do it from there. I've almost finished converting it completely now to java code.

When I think Visual Cafe, my next thought is usually, what a piece of junk. But if thats all you've got... Personally when it comes to java development, I'm happy just with textpad or if I really want some project management then developerpad.
Not really sure what sort of information you're looking for about your project, you want to use the java JDBC libraries to connect to your access DB I suppose. Difficult to say more without specifics of what advice you want.

Have you used Visual Cafe before? If not, I'd choose another IDE and stay well away from it. I had to use it once on a project before and it was a nightmare. The idea of code wizards sounds great for writing beans but in practise the whole of the development department ditched it and used JBuilder instead. It just created too much redundant and unmaintainable code.
Don't know what the other java guys here think but I've found JBuilder one of the most user-friendly apps. Kawa isn't bad either as an IDE too. I've seen older versions of JBuilder given away free on mag covers, and Kawa is downloadable from their website.
Don't quite get what you're trying to do? Link what itself?
