Never tried it. I think the lack of an adapter is what kills this. I'd be curious to hear whether the sqlserver adapter in ODBC mode could be fooled into hitting msaccess w/the right connect string...

Curious as to whether anyone out there has set up Rails as a front end to a M$ Access DB? I have done it with SQL Server, and have used ODBC to do it, so I know that this is certainly possible. I'm interested in gotchas, and good advice. I'm not interested in hearing questions about why someone would want to do such a silly thing ;). Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
