Hi. To create the .odb file that I sent you, all I did was create a new
Base file, select connect to an existing database, select Microsoft 2007,
and select the .accdb file. However, I did need to boot into Windows--the
connection is not possible on OS X. Is there a way to save a new .odb file
after connecting it to another database? Or any other way to make the new
.odb file independent of the .accdb file? I apologize for the misleading
title. I am not familiar with databases.
