I've connected to Access databases in rev before, and while it can be
done, it's not much fun. The query builder doesn't work, so you have
to do everything by hand. Until the db interface gets rewritten you'll
have a *much* easier time of things learning how to put Access forms
together and the VBA code that underlies them. Sorry for the bad news,
but unless you have lots of time to kill and the inclination to get
very deep into Access internals, I wouldn't attempt this.
