I have a SharePoint list that I have linked to in Access. The Access file is on another webserver, and I am trying to use ASP to select records from the table that is linked.

I have a table named 'LinkedFromSP' and in that table is an ID field. The SQL I am using is:

"select ID from LinkedFromSP;"

I am getting this error:


Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not find installable ISAM.

/selectanything.asp, line 21


I am able to successfully SELECT records from OTHER TABLES IN THE SAME db that are not linked to SharePoint.

I have upgraded MDAC and JET, on the server, as some other websites have suggested.

If this is a permissions issue, how do I pass LDAP credentials to Access - is this done in the connection string? (SharePoint installation we are using is using LDAP/Exchange, and I know nothing about how any of the credentials are set up.)

Any clue?

Oh, I forgot to mention that I can open the access db from a remote location and run the select query, and it runs just fine.
