One important thing to remember is that MapInfo needs some help to find a 
primary column in a view. Rename the primary column to MI_PRINX and I think 
you'lll be ready to rock and roll ;-)

Subject: Re: [MI-L] Cannot Open Table For Live Access


Matt,
Are you using an ODBC link to the access table?  Generally mapinfo needs a 
autonumber field or an integer field to act as a primary index.  Is it a view 
(in which case i would have thought it would have found the unique key field), 
or is it a table that the primary index is no longer the primary index, but 
merely a integer field?

Posibly need more info.
