[MS_AccessPros] Re: Access + SQL Server Express

 

Hello again,

The people I'm working with don't have SQL Server Express installed and are looking for advice on how to install it. Does anyone have suggestions about where or how they should install it, or what version they should use? They will have some employees accessing this system by VPN, and the front end will be in Access 2010. Any advice would be great.

Thanks again,
Shel

You just link to the tables using an ODBC connection (the last selection in the File Type list on the target database dialog for getting external data). Then you can run queries on them just like linked Access tables. There are a few gotchas that I've listed on my site. See http://thatlldoit.com/howtosarticles.aspx#sqlbackend
