I am trying to link to an access database C:Payroll.mdb. I know I have to type something in "Edit Script". What should I type in edit script or if you could point me to an article?
I know I can link to a table within the access database, but can I also link to a query?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Force 32 should do the trick: There is no 64-bit ODBC driver, so you need to use the 32-bit ODBC driver.
The following script works on my computer:
ODBC CONNECT32 TO [MS Access Database;DBQ=C:\Northwind.mdb];
SQL SELECT Address,
City,
CompanyName,
ContactName
FROM Customers;
but it depends on what your Data Source (Edit Script -> Tools -> ODBC Administrator 32-bit -> User DSN) is called and what data you want to load.

I don't think there's any way you can link to a query, unless your query is contained within a table (may be a cool idea to do this, as I've never seen it done).

I found out that the problem was that I had to click the box on the inital screen to "Force 32".

You are absolutely correct.
Thanks for the input.

Do you have any idea when say the graph below which is for a particular VP’s overall OT% for his entire division to jump to another chart that I have built (see second chart below) so that the VP can see the % by department – sort of a qlick to drill down to the detail.
Thanks

Jump to this chart when I click on one of the lines in the above chart
I think you should make a drill-down group of the two fields ([CostCenter Description] and [VP Name]). You can do this under Settings -> Doc. Properties -> Groups. Then use this as second dimension in the graph.

It is possible to get data from a query in Access as it is possible to connect to a view in SQL Server or Oracle.
You simply make sure the the View setting is checked when you explore the tables an you can see any table, view, query in the database.
