I have had some success runig d2r Map generator and d2r Server directly
over access.
See (Generate Mapping (limited) over ODBC) and (DatabaseSchemaInspector
Quessing the PrimaryKey) both posted today for code changes required.
Then use the jbdc string like "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver
(*.mdb)};DBQ=c:/temp/RIVPACS.mdb";
Strangly enough it works when I run the code from within Netbeans but
fails if I run it from the comman line (all vaules hard coded in so no
typos there.)
Let me know if you can think why!
Tested with Access 97 database.
I had to manulay remove some special symbols from the column names
including "?" greek letters and the degree sign.
