Which versions of MS Access allow you to

Select x from glop in "C:\blob.mdb"

or

Select x from [;database=C:\blob.mdb].glop

All versions since A97.

What are other limitaions/complications?

None that I know of, outside of issues raised by security being applied to
the remote database. What problems are you having?

Thanks. It worked. SOmeone had suggested it might not.
