I'm probably not clear,


Let look at the schema below:
DJ stands for Data Junction


DJ-->(ODBC)-->FOXDBC(LOCAL V1) Works!

DJ-->(ODBC)-->FOXDBC(LOCAL V2)<--(local table T1)+ (Local view V1) Works!

DJ-->(ODBC)-->FOXDBC(REMOTE V3)<--(base on ACCESSS table T2) Failed!

DJ-->(ODBC)-->FOXDBC(LOCAL V4)<--(based on Remote V3) Failed!


In all case, Within the DBC all views works but when accessing via a third party software via ODBC, there is some kind of problem with Remote view.
