Question : Access ODBC error after moving database
|
|
i have an access database.... and it has linked tables via ODBC the database runs ok on my desktop.
i sent it to someone else and it runs ok on his laptop
but when i move it to the server, i get: ODBC--call failed. [ProvideX][ODBC Driver][FILEIO]Table is not accessible(#12)
i know the ODBC driver is installed... i can pull data into excel over ODBC. i thought maybe the issue was because the server was on Office XP, but i have upgraded it to Office 2003 Pro, which is the version the database was created on. the error is the same.
i also tried the Linked Table Manager. i select all the tables to get updated, and i get: the microsoft jet database could not find object "tablename". make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly
but if i select just one table at a time to get updated, it does not give an error (but the query still give the ODBC--call failed error)
ideas? thanks

It looks like it is trying to use the providex ODBC driver, which I dont think is the correct driver for an SQL backend. Try recreating your DSN on the server, making sure you select the right SQL driver.
