I have been successfully running a C++ program making use of ADO connections
to ACCESS databases.  I have just moved to a new computer running XP
Professional, reinstalled C++ Builder, but run into problems when forms are
created in the execution.The problem seems to lie in the introduction of an
ADO Table--a simple program with an ADOConnection to the database works with
no problem but add the table, connect it and make it live and the
EVariantTypeCastError with the message "Could not convert variant of type
(Null) into type (String)" appears.

Have I missed something in the installation or is there another problem?

I would really appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks,

David Allen
