Re: Access 2000 & Views

Sorry... I thought maybe this was a common error.

I don't know how to provide a simple example other than to ask this
question:

Using Access 2000 and the PostgreSQL ODBC driver (v7.1.0008), has anyone
successfully linked to a view in a PostgreSQL database (just like you would
link to a table)?

If the answer is yes, then I need to look in another direction for the
answer to my problem.

Thanks for the help.

Could you give us a simple example ?
