Access link to a view not a table

  • I've been using Access for all my queries against a SQL Server database by using the link table connection. I've created a view on the database and I would like to link to the view.

    Is that possible?

    How?

     

     

  • Access inherently "grabs" ALL tables and views that the user has SELECT permission and displays them ALL under the "TABLE" guise....

  • This is where naming conventions and prefixes come in handy, I can instantly differentiate between tables and views when I'm managing connections.

    It's also advantageous to have your objects owned by DBO so that they sort better in the display.
