I had a client request to export some data to Access 2010 for their downstream use.  I have done this in the past and thought it a no-brainer; however, there is always a little trick–hence the post.  🙂

Because I had already installed Office 2010, I assumed the Microsoft Access Database Engine for 2010 would get me what I needed.  Because I was using a new machine, I had to install the 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components.  After I did that, I could see the Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider.  I put in the location of the access db, and I was off and running.AccessEngineProvider

Imagine what’s possible with a dedicated SQL specialist on your team.
