What drivers are u using to connect to Sybase and what platform? Cant you link tables from Access using ODBC? Create DSN on NT/2000 to Sybase and use access to link the tables? Or doesnt Sysbase have an Export DB/Tables Utility.. Almost all DB's(SQL,ORACLE etc) have this feature.. i would be surprised.. if Sybase lacks this.
