>Access and SQL Server are two separate different products. Yes and no... Separate products, but one can interface with the other. I use access as an interface to our SQL server ALL the time... If you have it configured correctly it works quite nicely. It certainly loads a lot faster than enterprise manager.
Create a new project (existing database), save it.. that will bring about the connection dialog box. In server name, enter the ip address of your SQL server. Enter all the login and password information, and then find the database, hit OK, and you're done. Works very similar to working with an actual Access database, however the design view is different - it is SQL Server-ish (different datatypes, etc.) -Bill brainbox ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fregas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2001 2:30 PM Subject: Re: SQL server > Laurent, > > I'm not sure if I fully understood your question.
