How to modifiy a mdb file ?
Hey everybody,

I would like to modifiy a Microsost Data Base file (.mdb) through NSIS.

I 've an installer, and depends on the user demands, i would like to add entry in my mdb file.

I don't really know how to do that...i've looked around NsODBC or MSSQL OLEDB plug-in, but i don't think they allow to do it.

Could you help me please?

This is not a NSIS question but more database/programming question.

Try this:
- create simple C plug-in and call it from your NSIS installer.

Pass required arguments to your plug-in.
Example:

MyPlugin::ModifyDatabase "name=John"

Execute using ExecDos::Exec.

But mdbtools looks like an Unix soft, isn' it ?
Maybe i have to make my own plug in like suggests T.Slappy.
