MC, this worked for me on XP/SP2 - Access 2003

1. Using the Administrative Tools / Data Sources option - select the
System DSN tab and configure (or add another) a SQLite3 source pointing
to your copy of the db.

2. Open Access and create a new blank database, use the menu options:
File - Get External Data - and either Import or Link Tables (as you
prefer).  In the dialogue box that opens set file type to ODBC().  This
should open a Select Data Source dialogue box.  Select the tab 'Machine
Source' - click on the source you configured in 1. Click OK (I used
1000 msec as a time out).

3.  Select the tables you want to link to in the dialogue that appears
and click OK - the tables you want will appear in the Access database
control.

4. The relations between the tables will not come over, but if you link
rather than import the table specific indexes and keys seem to be
preserved (all are lost if you import).

Happy querying

Chris
