SELECT data records from MS ACCESS database using MSSQL Server

Question

I already successfully created a link from the other workstation and I can view all the tables from MS ACCESS database. But I can't retrieve the data from the tables using simple SELECT Statement.

SELECT * FROM [192.168.1.64].default.dbo.CHECKINOUT;

When I execute this query i got this error:

Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'default'.

I also found this query:

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1
RECONFIGURE
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'ad hoc distributed queries', 1
RECONFIGURE
GO

SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI', 'Server=192.168.1.64;Trusted_Connection=yes;',
     'SELECT *
      FROM default.dbo.CHECKINOUT') AS a;
GO

but got this error:

Configuration option 'show advanced options' changed from 1 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
Configuration option 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' changed from 1 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.

Answer 1

When creating a Linked Server in SQL Server that points to an Access database we refer to a specific database file, so "catalog" and "schema" have no real meaning in that context. Therefore, when specifying an Access table as a four-part name in T-SQL we simply omit the second and third parts:

SELECT * FROM [AccessLinkedServerName]...[TableName]

or, in your case

SELECT * FROM [192.168.1.64]...[CHECKINOUT]
