Hello,
I've been told by my IT dept that this is not possible, but I am skeptical. I have found that there are 3rd party drivers that claim to help. Are they really needed?
Won't the ODBC Driver for windows already provide this capability? If not, what is missing/wrong?
As another route, what about Web Services? What type of authentication details are needed, because using just my username and password for the instance of Salesforce fails.
Essentially, I am hoping to find some details my IT dept has not found, and show them what is possible.
Am I correct, in assuming that one should not need to simply run a report within Salesforce, export it, and then import it into Access? Our reports already time out and fail to pull large numbers of records. HOpefully, this would alleviate that.
Thanks,
