You need to use either the Microsoft or Oracle ODBC driver. Create a DSN
to your database using the ODBC Manager in Windows Control Panel, then
use that connection to link the tables into Access (File, Get External
Data, Link Tables).
Call stored procedures requires you to put the procedure within a
BEGIN...END block inside a passthrough query.
Hope this helps
