Specify mdw file in embedded connection string to another Jet mdb: possible?

Short answer is no. If you use the source db then you can't specify another workgroup and if leave it blank and specify a valid connection string then you will get an ISAM error. (Although that method works just fine for other databases such as SQL Server.) Example (does not work).

Well... actually you can use the connection string. It works best with SQL Server. I was just showing how it would like if it worked with Access.

The point I was trying to make is that there is a valid syntax... It's just that Access won't allow you to do that with Access. (It will let you do that if the connection is to another type of database.) Funny that the feature is compatible with other types of DBs and not Access... When it's Access, but true nevertheless.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
