Create data set to MS Access db [message #539206] Thu, 10 June 2010 00:09 Go to next message

Hello All,

I've been trying to create a data set to an access db. However, everytime I try to do this BIRT has shut itself down although I did use a test connection and the message said connection successful.

I've followed instruction on setting up JDBC-ODBC connection within the data source. I used the instruction from this link:
http://digiassn.blogspot.com/2008/02/birt-birt-reporting-for -microsoft.html

A little info regarding the access db: it requires a username and password for login. I've specified this when setting up the drivers, but haven't had any luck. Here's what I've specified in the JDBC driver:
URL Template: jdbc:odbc:SALeapdb;UID=John Smith;PWD=output

Does any one has a suggestion to resolve the issue?

Thanks,
Albert

I hadn't used the JDBC-ODBC bridge for MS Access, but had used it for
Excel and Text files,so it really does work!

I'm wondering if the space in the UID is causing you problems.

Had you tried using a UID without spaces? Had you tried escaping the space?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, it does work.
I had the wrong database. Fix that now, and it's working.
