Connect from Visual Basic 6 to SQL Server 2005 express

Hi people,
I downloaded sql server 2005 express and I installed it. I have Visual
Basic 6 application, that work with MS access with ado connection. This
connection give me seek and findfirst methods. I want migrate this access db
to sql sever 2005, but i don't make any change in vb6 code (only the
connection).
My first question is, can i connect from vb6 application to sql sever
2005 express? Moreover,how must i connect the application to sql sever and
work with seek and findfirst methods?
If it's possible, you will put a code example to connect...

You can't use SEEK and FINDFIRST methods against a SQL Server table. Those
methods will only work against an Access Jet database.
You need to use T-SQL statements such as SELECT...WHERE to accomplish
similar results. Code changes are inevitable.
Hope this helps,
