How you connect to Access MDB?
Via CONNECTION or DSN?
CREATE DATABASE TEST
OPEN DATABASE Test
SET DATABASE TO Test
CREATE CONNECTION MyAccess CONNSTRING "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=FULLPATHTOACCESSDB.mdb;Uid=USERNAME;Pwd=PASSWORD;"
CREATE SQL VIEW MyView CONNECTION MyAccess AS SELECT * FROM AccessTable

The only thing normal about database guys is their tables.
