    Microsoft Access database

    Hello,

    Is it possible to search and display results frontend from a Microsoft Access database file (.mdb) using XSLT? Or other methods supported by Umbraco?

    Thanks in advance,

    /Mathias

    Not as far as I know, but you could convert it to xml and use xsl against it?

    Something like http://www.pablosoftwaresolutions.com/html/mdb_2_xml.html

    Hi Mathias,

    That should be possible through an Xslt Extension. But I think it's easier using a .net usercontrol to bind the data against a datalist/grid/repeater.

    Cheers,

    Richard

    Richard,

    It sounds very good to use a .net usercontrol to bind the data! Can you help me a little more on the way of doing that?

    Thanks,

    /Mathias
