    Resolved [Resolved] Query Externel Database?

    Is it possible to query an external database using MS Access 2002?

    I want to populate a form based on a certain value in a field. But the value being selected is also dependant on another form.

    Two separate forms in the same database or physically separate dbs?

    Will you be querying another Access database or a SQL Server table or an Oracle table or what?

    Seems like it may be another Access db since you are talking about another Form?
