Hi Lembit

Yes, in the AIDA folder you can locate some template database and SQL
files. One is named "DB - Access.mdb". Copy this to the folder of your
choice.
In AIDA, open Files, Setup and select ADO. The ADO pane opens.
Mark MS.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 and pick your database copy under Database.
Click Test to check that AIDA can connect to the file.

That's it!
