An OleDB connection can be used relative to the driver when you want to create for instance a connection on a SQL database or a Microsoft Access database or a personal geo database.

In this example a connection to a personal geo database (.mdb) is created. The name and the alias are defined for the OleDB connection. In the next step the connection to the database is created.

 

In the Properties dialog box of the data link, the database provider (e.g. Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider) and the connection (selection of the database) is defined.

 

When the connection is ready created it can be tested.
