link to simply accounting

A

Alex Paradi

Hi there.

I'm using win XP and Access 2000.

I'm trying to create a report that is based on my Simply
Accounting file. I can do this using Crystal Reporting
(that comes with Simply, but Crystal doesn't seem to let
me email my reports automatically).

In Crystal Reporting I can import the tables by selecting
ODBC and then I see a list of a bunch of different files
and I can select my specific Simply Accounting File and
then the specific tables.

In Access when I try to link - I set the file type to ODBC
and I get the Select Database Source pop-up. I click on
the Machine Data Source tab and I get the same list that I
saw in Crystal Reporting. However, when I click on a
simply accounting file I get the "You can't use ODBC to
import external Microsoft Jet or ISAM databases"

Anyone know what I need to do in order to link to a Simply
Accounting file?
