    Re: connect to access

    If you are connecting to SQL Server through code, and I suspect you are, then why would you want to use a bound control like ADODC?

    Keep using code for your connection. It is much more flexible. dee-u's link should provide you with the connection string you need.

    If not, there are two and half tons of examples of how to connect to an Access database that have been posted in this one forum section alone.
