Default Updateable multi-table query with inked table to a Progres backend

Re Access 2003

Is it possible to include a linked table from a Progress backend in an Acces
multi-table query, and have that linked table updatable?

Many thanks.

Yes, but you need an appropriate ODBC driver.

Many thanks for the reply Stefan.

What do I need to determine to know which ODBC driver to use.

Also, would I use DAO, ADO, OLEDB, ODBCDirect etc?
Many thanks.

There exist afaik only commercial drivers.

As it is a linked table, I would prefer DAO.
