it keeps asking me for login authorization.  it's my own personel database.  i don't have a login. 

i hit ok to bybass login and qlikview takes me back to database dialogue screen.

only .mdb file name i can connect too.  why not .accdb?

then you need to provide user name and password for that,because here i am able to connect without password.
