Access with non-mdb suffix
Access with non-mdb suffix
(OP)
I am writing an interface to a purchased software product. It uses Access, but the database suffix is not .mdb. I have no problem opening the database.
I want to link the table into my application When I try to add the table with "get external data" it says it doesn't recognize the file type. So I tried creating an ODBC data source, and it says I can't open an Access database with ODBC.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks, Jim

RE: Access with non-mdb suffix
Thanks for the quick reply. When opening the database I told it to look for all file types ( *.* ), but didn't think to just type the name when linking.
Now I'm ready to roll.
