Dear All,

I am doing a web project, I have to use hibernate tool for connecting MS Access Database. Can any one please tell me what are the steps I need to follow to work out hibernate2.1 with Microsoft Access Database?

Thanks in Advance

Hibernate is not directly concerned about Access, the first thing is to provide a jdbc driver for access. If you don't have this, you can't go further (or maybe by using jdbc-odbc bridge).

Then, you should try and precise the dialect : http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/refer ... l-dialects

But it seems that Access has not one...

To sum up, try to open a jdbc connection manually without even using Hibernate, then only try to use Hibernate. Hibernate uses JDBC, so if you aren't able to access the db with jdbc, forget Hibernate :-).
