How do I use ucanaccess to access a remote server for a java interface / how do I find my remote SQL Server file path?

Question

I know that the code below works for a Microsoft Access Database but I need to switch it to my remote SQL server.

try {
    String driver = "net.ucanaccess.jdbc.UcanaccessDriver";
    Class.forName(driver);
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:ucanaccess://???SQLSERVERPATH???");
} catch (Exception e) {
    System.out.println(e);
}

So where do I figure out what the server path is ?

Answer 1

The UCanAccess JDBC driver is only designed to work with data stored in Microsoft Access datbase files (.accdb, .mdb). It cannot be used to work with data in a SQL Server database. You will need to use a SQL Server JDBC driver for that (eg, this one ).
