Is it possible to connect to SQL Server 2005 from an APD project. When I
pull down the connection menu, it only shows the SQL 2000 server and does
not show the SQL 2005 server. Am I missing something simple here?
Ed Warren
Enter manually the name of the server, followed by the name of the instance
if necessary. For example: (local)\SQL2005 .
The design tools won't work but the data will be OK.

Thanks a lot, that works. I had thought I had tried that but I must have
made some 'fat finger mistake' it works like a charm now.

so it lets you connect; but it won't let you write sprocs and views?
i sure hope that's a line of crap
it should work; i mean-- it's the current version of access and the
current version of sql
i think that we should all write a petition to MS to get this working
by SQL 2005 sp1

i mean.. this from the company that made access 2000 and sql 2000
incompatable.
idiots run the access dept at ms from what i see
sh.t; i went to some access users group meeting the other day and some
access pm couldn't write SQL to save his life.. lol
time to grow up, kids

Select 'Aaron' From Employees
UNION
Select Firstname From Employees
i mean.. anyone else see the problem with that??
