I have a vb.net application (it's a form basicly) that I need to run it
on MS Access 97. Is it possible to write a .net Add-in for that??

You should be able to call the .NET app as a COM object.

Or perhaps you can run it via the command line - and pass data through a
drop file?

If you mean by that ,,,,

A :   manipulate data in the access 97 database from the outside   the
answer is a definite Yes

B: if you mean from the Access 97 database  ,,,, ( start VB.Net code on a
certain event , button press or whatever ) the answer is Yes but
    Access is fully automation capable (  COM   ) and in VB.net you can make
COM capable programs so you can reference them in your Access 97 project


I hope this answers your question
