Par2: Accessing Access files with ODBC
1998-10-13 -- Jerry Ray
 
You can do this via ODBC.  Make sure you have the latest Microsoft ODBC
driver for Access databases (version 2.1).  Since the Clarion IDE is a
16-bit application, if your Access database
is being accessed with a 32-bit data source, use Clarion 4 on a Windows NT
machine to perform
the file import into the definition in the dictionary.  You can get a copy
of ODBC 2.1 from
ftp://ftp.sunet.se/ftp/pub/vendor/Microsoft/developr/ODBC/public/ODBC21.exe.

Once the file definition is in the dictionary (however you got it there),
you can make and compile
a 16-bit or 32-bit application that can use the database.
