Body
I have occasionally encountered customer machines where <code>FileSystemObject</code> didn't work, presumably because of paranoid IT departments disabling it somehow. I now try to avoid <code>FileSystemObject</code> if possible. You can usually replace the <code>FileSystemObject</code> with native VB6 code or API calls direct to the Windows API. For example Karl E Peterson's excellent <a href="http://vb.mvps.org/samples/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">VB6 website</a> has some great objects written entirely in VB6. Some examples <ul> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1587591/getting-error-on-while-reading-a-blank-text-file/1588248#1588248">Read</a> an entire text file into a string. </li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1135614/how-to-find-if-the-network-path-is-available-or-not/1136408#1136408">Check</a> whether a directory exists. </li> <li><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb773584%28VS.85%29.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Check</a> whether a file exists. </li> <li><a href="http://vb.mvps.org/samples/project.asp?id=DirDrill" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Search</a> for files recursing through sub-directories. </li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1147123/how-to-select-path-only/1152791#1152791">Convert</a> a file path to drive and directory only. </li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2880780/how-to-get-datetime-stamp-of-a-textfile-using-vb-6/2881112#2881112">Get file date/time stamp</a></li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
