Hi,

Not sure if this is the correct forum but I have an MS Access 2003 database located on a Windows server. Part of the application I built requires some of the tables in this database to be 'linked' tables to .csv files. The problem is, the .csv files are located on a different server and are only available via a URL for "security" reasons. Is there any way to programatically link an external .csv file like this to an access table if the .csv files is only available via URL? Ex. this is how I can access the file now:
I know I cannot do it using the link table wizard because it requires a path to a drive.

Thank you,

dhx
