I had made some tests in Sept.2007
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Connecting_to_Microsoft_Access
There I found, that ADO gives only read access to the table, you need to 
setup an ODBC connection.

I don't know, whether "Access 2007" uses ADO and whether it is intended 
to give write access to the tables. A quick test with LO 3.6 using type 
"Access 2007" results in "missing SDBC driver". So the database could 
not be opened at all. A connection with ODBC works in LO 3.6 and the 
tables are writeable.

Kind regards
Regina
