Could you describe the issue in more detail ? What I'm confused about is this
"The SQL database of today has a large number of Access databases accessing it via ODBC to retrieve" So are you saying you have *code* in an Access Database (client) that currently accesses your SQLServer (DB / server) and you want that *code* (in access) to start accessing the data in MarkLogic from within Access ? Or do you want code in MarkLogic to access data from an Access database ? -David ---------------------------------------- David A. Lee Senior Principal Software Engineer Epocrates, Inc.

Is this feasible, a crazy idea, or actually trivial? The background behind this question is this: We currently plan the move of an MS SQL Server database to MarkLogic. (Of course, this means that the data model will change considerably, from row-based data to a hierarchical structure.) The SQL database of today has a large number of Access databases accessing it via ODBC to retrieve data for specialized purposes. We need to continue to provide some kind of access to these MS Access databases. Thanks in advance for your help! cheers, Jakob. _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://xqzone.com/mailman/listinfo/general _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://xqzone.com/mailman/listinfo/general
