Thanks
With my statement
SELECT * FROM OPENDATASOURCE ('Microsoft.jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Data Source=h:\Shopinfo\shopdetail.mdb')...ShopDetail WHERE SHOP_PFCNTR =
$Shop Number$
The error I get is the following
ARERR [552] Failure during SQL operation to the database : ORA-00933: SQL
command not properly ended
The MDB does not have a passowrd. I think I'm missing a quote somewhere.
A question I had is, do I need to setup a System Data source on the server
to this Microsoft access db or can that be done on the client?

Re: SQL statement

The following works for SQL Server in a similar situation. Not sure what
the corollary to "OPENDATASOURCE" is for Oracle.
SELECT X.* FROM OPENDATASOURCE('Microsoft.jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Data Source=\\usranfb\transfer\Shopinfo\shopdetail.mdb;
Jet OLEDB:Database Password=<password>;')...<table name> X
WHERE SHOP_PFCNTR = $Shop number$
<password> is an optional database level password - if there is no
database password on the .mdb file I think you can omit the entire "Jet
OLEDB:Database Password=<password>;" phrase.
<table name> is the name of the table containing the SHOP_PFCNTR field in
your Access database.
Hope this helps,
Jim.
