SQL Server 2012 Connecting to MS Access 2003












3















SQL Server 2012 - Access 32-bit 2003 - I can import the database, I don't understand why I can't link to it. SQL 2012 may have changed the connection string or something.



I just installed SQL Server 2012 to test differences and make sure it is ok for my Work. I may not be a pro at SQL, but I don't see how to add a Link to Jet database on my server. I have imported Jet Databases, but when going thru the GUI to Link a JET Database I see no Provider for JET. I am running Access 2003 (I don't like the 2008+ GUI)



I searched an found nothing similar to my issue; at least nothing I understood. Nothing mentioned how to add Jet db Provider.



I ran a connection string to the Jet Database thru QA:



sp_addlinkedserver 'USGEScrub', 'Access', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',  
'D:Lead$SupListUSGEScrub.mdb'


The connection string works till I try to access the data and then I get this the error and of course if I click the links nothing shows up:

Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc)

          looks like it might be to do with the drivers.

          Here is Microsoft's take on the issue: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2555855
