RE: MS Access Connection with database password

No, 
I haven't found them :( Please direct me...

Password lenght and content is not a problem (I guess!) since I tried changing it to a simple small "a" without any further success.

Thanks a bunch!

Did you read the notes regarding password length, password content and Access version issues?
Do any of these apply to you?
I suspect one of them does.

Hi,

I'm trying to connect to a MS Access database that has a database password set.

According to http://www.connectionstrings.com/access/ you use the folowing as a connection string in such cases:

Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\myFolder\myAccessFile.accdb; Jet OLEDB:Database Password=MyDbPassword;



Which I translate into

$dbcon = new PDO( 'odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=C:\\exampledb.mdb;Jet OLEDB:Database Password=MyDbPassword;' );

But it doesn't work :(

When I have removed the password, there's no problem connecting but not with password set.



I don't make the database, it's maintained elsewhere and I plan to download it regularly and extract data from it so I need to connect to the database with the password set.



Any help or hints are deeply appreciated!
