I may be wrong about this, but I believe you have to register your database before you can access it. Have you done that?

Can you tell us how you defined the "connection string" to get records? Did you use "Control Panel\Administrative Tools\Data Sources (ODBC)" to define it?

Neither do I. I use C++ to interact with Access databases all the time and I've never had to "register" them. :confused:
