Default Linked servers

Morning,
Thanks for replying Armen.
I'm not sure how to set-up ODBC connection to MSSQL 2005 ent. to show linked
server tables... I cannot select it from Default Database option under MSSQL
Native driver, maybe using Attach Database filename option can be utilized
for this?
Once I can get those DB2 tables to link in MS Access then its downhill from
there.

Thanks

Amir

Have you tried linking to the linked-DB2 tables in SQL Server? I
don't think Access would know the difference.
