I have a local database of SQ Server 2008 express R2 set up on my C: DRIVE.
I am using Qdabra dbxl to bring infopath form data into the sql server db.
I really want to link the tables into an access database for query and reporting.
When I tried to link I could not find the database. It found lot as the drop down was loaded...but I could not find the local one. Do I set up a dsn to the c drive and Navidad to the database.
