Jet.oledb provider with Access 97
The example in SQL Server Books Online works quite well:
USE pubs
GO
SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'c:\northwind.mdb';'admin';'', Orders)
AS a
GO
The problem is just that you're not passing the authentication information
(username and password); Jet, by default, uses Admin and no password.
