| Hi Rita,
|
|
|
| We develop generic ODBC (2.5) driver for database venders. After install
Jet
| 4.0 SP7, MS access can no longer link to tables in our customer database
| through our ODBC 2.5 driver. This has never happened before we install
| Jet4.0 SP7.
|
|
|
| And I have also just learned that Jet4 SP7 does not work well with
| Oracl8.7.1.x ODBC driver. Please take a look at the following discuss
| between me and another developer who is using Oracle ODBC driver:
|
|
|
| note: the Jet4.0 SP7 comes with Windows 2000 SP4 too.
