Hello Alan,

Thank you for that link. It gives me hope that it can be done. I forgot to mention we don't have any Java knowledgeable programmers here, hence the reason we're using Scott's JDBC stuff. I'm doubtful that my boss will allow me the time to learn enough Java to figure out how to do this.
I'm hoping someone has already "invented this wheel" so I don't have to.

Thanks again,
Jay

subject: Has anyone connected to an MS Access database

Hello all,

I'm posting to the Java group since I suspect JDBC or a combination of JDBC & ODBC would be the preferred method for connecting to a MS Access database from RPG.
We are currently using Scott Klement's JDBCR4 routines to access MS SQL and Oracle databases.
I've scan the Java list for the past 4 years and 'Haven't seen any mention of MS Access.
Does anyone know how to access a Microsoft Access database from the IBM i?

We're on 7.1 and actively planning our move to 7.3. We're in the process of updating to Java 8. I think our production system is still Java 6.

Thanks,
Jay Triche

You need a Type 4 JDBC driver. You need to know if you can access Access with a JDBC type 4 driver.

Found this.
