convert sql file to access

[Tal]

Is there any way i can convert a sql file (downloaded as a backup from an
online forum) to ms access? Basically the aim of doign this is to be able
to print a custom made report from the forum data

Well, there is a free working copy of sql server on your office CD (it is
the desktop editing of sql server called MSDE).

Perhaps you can just install that..and then view/edit the data?

The MSDE . At that point, you can either

a) simply export the data to something that ms-access can read. (if you
have the sql server tools installed, then you can use the DTS services ..and
export to ms-access file format).

b) Create a new adp project..and report on the datafile.
