New Not unless VB is integrated with SQL server
There is a lot of legacy Access code out there that uses functions written in VB from within SQL.

Can you do that in SQL server?

Cheers,
Ben

New Yeesh!
I'll admit to not knowing that much about the dirty tricks that one can play within Access... VB *inside* the DB structure itself? Yeek.

New Perish the thought
SQL Server does integrate with VB via the Data Transformation Services, but that's just used for reporting services.
New "In the Next Version"
The next version of SQL Server ("Yukon") as well as it's MSDE replacing offshoot SQL Server Express will support hosting the .Net CLR in SQL Server.

Not the same thing though, in regards to supporting legacy Access code.
