Access 2000 and SQL Server 2005

JA
Is it possible to connect to Sql Server 2005 using an Access 2000 adp? I
keep trying, but it doesn't want to accept my id, even though it is right.

You cannot accuse me for knowing too much Access, but I don't see why
it would not work. (Mind you, I don't even know an ADP is.)

It could help if you post the error message you get and the connection
string you are using.

Hi Erland,

I don't have the original post in my Windows Mail so I am replying to the
group by replying to your post. ADP stands for Access Data (or Database -
It's been a while)
Project. With Access 2000 you had the option to continue use .mdb files
that used primarily JET engine and you could use linked tables to connect
to SQL 2000. Using .adp you were directly connected to the SQL databases
and you could not use JET engine.
JA, it seems you can not use Access 2000 with SQL 2005
