Re: Access mdb file



Hi,

if you just want to read from access (and know/ask user for the tablename)
we use code like this :

cFile = "d:\Daten.mdb"
cconn = "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=" + cFile +
";Exclusive=1;Uid=admin;Pwd="
nConn=SQLSTRINGCONNECT(cConn)
IF nCOnn>0
nerg = SQLEXEC(nCOnn,'Select * from table1','dummy2')
if nerg>0 && Now data is in cursor dummy2
SELECT dummy2
browse && or so
endif
SQLDISCONNECT(nConn)
ENDIF
CLOSE DATABASES

You do NOT need a sqlserver or msde, just installed acces or installed
access odbc drivers.
