ODBC Driver for .adp

[JH Higgins]

I'm trying to create an odbc data source for a MS Access .adp file.
Apparently there is no driver for this type of file available on this
PC. Do you know where I could find one?

thanks

An ODBC driver for an ADP file is about the most impossible thing you can
imagine. First of all, an ADP file is designed to use onlu ADO, not DAO, and
second of all, an ADP file stores neither data not information about tables,
it looks at a specified SQL Server connection for all of that information at
run-time.

Consequently, there is nothing in an ADP file for ODBC to conceivably refer
to.
