What happened to Microsoft's KB articles? I can't seem to find any of the ones I used to with old links I had.
:confused:

I'll admit it has been several years since I've looked for them, so I've been out of the loop for awhile.

This has always been a problem. When I come across a kb article I like, I copy it into Word and insert a link so I can check for changes when I use it. If the link doesn't work, at least I still have the text of the article.

Thanks for all the replies!

I probably did that but I think it's somewhere on an old hard drive.

The title of the article is 'How to Use ADOX to Create and Refresh Linked Jet Tables'. Doing a search on that support search website does give me results, but none of the links work!
:banghead:

After chatting with online Microsoft support, I was told to try call their commercial support.

I just got off the phone. Was told that the kb article no longer exists. :(

BUT!, using a different version of the url I was able to find a version on archive.org!!! :D

I've printed this to PDF for safe keeping!!!
