Is there any way of linking Access 2000 to a view in SQLServer 7?

Yes there is. The only way that I know is to Link using ODBC. The View will appear in your DB under Tables with a Globe Icon next to it and prefixed dbo_ .

Can't really help with the ODBC part, but as long as you've the ODBC Drivers installed, it's as simple as Linking to another Access DB. The downside is that if this is a Permanent Link you will need to Refresh the Link each time you Open the DB. Let me know if you need any help with this.

Good Luck

Bill
