New Data Source VB2005 and Access 2007 beta

Well I'm hoping I'm asking this in the right place. But probrably not. I am using VB2005 express and have Access 2007 beta. When I try to add a new data source VB is looking for a .mdb database type. However Access 2007 beta uses .accdb. I'm not sure how to get these two talking since in the vb drop down boxes all it list is a connection on access with .mdb and all files. When I try all files and pick the accdb data I get the "Couldn't connect with data sorce c:blahblah/bills.accdb.mdb. This an error or am I just totally off the mark? Any help would be appreciated.Did you find a solution to this problem?
