Native Access Connector
Available only with this kind of connection
Operations required to run Native Access Connectors in WINDEV and WEBDEV This type of Native Connector allows access to ACCESS databases for better interoperability purposes. We recommend that you use HFSQL, the database engine included in WINDEV and WEBDEV. To use a Native Access Connector, you need to install: - MDAC.
- the Microsoft Jet provider (installed with MS Access or Internet Explorer 6.0 for example).
Note: The Access Native Connector works with Access 2007 and higher (files in ACCDB/MDB format).. Creating an application that uses a Native Access Connector To create an application that uses the Access tables, all you have to do is import the structure of these tables into the data model editor of WINDEV or WEBDEV: - Open the analysis associated with the project: click on
among the quick access buttons. - On the "Analysis" tab, in the "Creation" group, expand "Import" and select "Import file/table descriptions...".
If you choose to keep the data in Access format, the Access tables can be directly handled by the WLanguage functions for managing data files (starting with the letter H). A connection to the Access database is automatically established. Note: if the path of the Access tables used is different during development and when the application is run, use the HChangeDir and HChangeName functions. If you choose to convert the data to HFSQL format, data files in HFSQL format will be created from the structure of Access tables. These HFSQL data files can be manipulated by data file management functions (functions beginning with the letter H). Native Access Connector with WINDEV 5.5. What to do with a new WINDEV version?
