Eileen,

Yes.

Are you linking from Access to SQL Server, or from SQL Server to Access?

If it's case #1, you simply use ODBC and Access Linked Tables.

If it's case #2, you have to configure a Linked Server in SQL Server, to the
Access database you need. Once it's set up, you can query it, join to it,
etc.
