All posts - MF 8.x - link table from MS Access
andrej107 post(s) |
When I want to link the MS Access table (mdb) I get the following error "Can't establish connection to data source: error binding to data source." When I click on the Ok button I get the message "Unknown error." So far, this matter has worked for me for many years. Win 10, MF 8.0.31.0 (x64). Same error if I want to import table from MS Access. Im asking for help. Thanks.

Start here: Microsoft Office Formats - MDB, XLS and Friends Even easier than dealing with the chaos caused by Microsoft's pseudo transition from 32-bits to 64-bits for Office formats, is to just launch Manifold in 32-bits when linking to Office formats.

I'll quickly add: the most likely reason you cannot read MDB / XLS / similar data formats in 64-bit mode is that you do not have the 64-bit version of the Microsoft Access Database Engine installed. But read the help topic linked by Dimitri for the details.
