SQL View of MS Access

6 New Member
Is it possible to create a View in MSSQL that will pull data from an MS Access database?

I know you can go the opposite direction, link to a SQL View through Access, but can you go the other way with it?

Sure. Theres probably lots of ways to do it.

I would use the MS Jet provider, but I've seen it done using the OLE DB provider.

I created a test.mdb on the root of my SQL server. In that MDB I created a simple table called tblTest. Here's how I selected from that table.


Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Select * 
  2. From OpenRowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 
  3.    'C:\Test.mdb';'admin';'', tblTest)
