Can I mapp a BO to a MS Access view?

I have the BO, the view in the mdb, but if I call the BO Mapper tool, only tables are displayed.

Is it possible?

Thanks,

Alex B.

Alex,

We actually use OLEDB to talk to Access and call the GetSchema to return the views...apparently the Access OLEDB provider doesn't return views as a table.  I can add this to a list to look at before the next update, but Edhy is correct in that you could create a query that does this form you.

Access has full ANSI 92 SQL support which means that you can use JOINs, etc, which is all that a view is doing for you anyway...especially as it relates to read-only data.  Here is one post that I have recently talked about how to create an INNER JOIN: http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost14603.aspx . (It is the same thread that Edhy mentioned).
