I am using VB.NET and MDAC 2.7 SP1. SQL SERVER 2000 Developer with SP2. WINDOWS XP Professional SP1a"

You didn't specify what type of cursor you are using. You are not actually attempting to seek on a table, but rather on a recordset based on an underlying table. Check the Supports property of your recordset, if it supports adIndex and adSeek. The syntax is :
If rs.Supports(adIndex) = True ....
You might have to experiment with cursor types (Keyset, Static, Dynamic) until you find one that supports Seek, unless you can do without it by using the Find method. It is also possible that the underlying table is not indexed properly, or that you are not retrieving all fields that are part of an index.
