Just because it is working for a different database does not mean that the
problem isn't in your code and/or configuration.  I use C++Builder to work
with MS-Access97 MDB files fairly regularly and do not have the problems
you were describing.  

Also,  you mention Access97 in the subject but Access2000 in the body,
which one are you trying to use?  If you are trying to use Access2000 with
anything other than ODBC or ADO,  you are attempting to use something which
is unsupported.  Thanks to MS,  the only way to connect to Acces2000 MDB
files when C++Builder v5 was released were ODBC and ADO,  and there were
known problems with ODBC at that time...

The error may well be caused by a bad BDE configuration for your Alias
and/or driver.  This could explain the problem occurring before your
winmain() function,  as it would then be happening during the BDE
initialization.  I just wrote a couple of quick test applications this
afternoon using (one using ODBC and the other using ADO) to connect to an
Access2000 MDB file,  and they both worked perfectly,  with no errors or
exceptions,  so I strongly suspect that "Jirzi" is giving you a good lead
to work with...
