Connecting Access with The Raisers Edge Database

C

Craig Brody

Hello,

I have both Access XP and RE 7.61

Would like to add a button to an Access client form that when clicked would
open my Raisers Edge Database and in Raisers Edge,move right to the same
client page in RE that corresponds to the client on the Access form...

Can this be done??

thank you very much

Access has been an Automation Client forever, so from the Access side, the
answer is yes.

The real question is whether Raisers Edge is an Automation Server. To answer
that question, you need to ask the Raisers Edge people.

To get a look at what is involved with Automation, download the Office
Automation Help File from
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;302460.

Good luck.
