Hi everyone!

I have an Access Database that resides on a network drive. I follow the
following steps:

1) I create an ODBC connection for this database
2) I create a MapInfo Map Catalog for the database
3) I ATTEMPT to make the remote table mappable in MapInfo
        - When I try to do this - I get the message "There are no
non-mappable tables for this datasource"
        - When I click the OK button, the 'Select ODBC Table wizard' comes
up - indicating the right ODBC database connection - but where all the
tables should appear in the select table area - it is BLANK - no tables
appear.

Now the kicker. If I copy this same database onto my local hard drive, set
up an ODBC connection to it there - it works fine. No problems. I can also
use the same ODBC connection to access the network database using Excel. The
Access database in Access 2000. If I save the database as an older version
of Access - it works.

I don't use MapInfo a lot, so I don't know if I am missing something very
obvious. Can anyone assist? Is there a compatibility problem with Access
2000. I am using MI Pro 5.0 ...

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

Craig
