[AccessD] Call a function in an AccDb from outside it?

[Paul Wolstenholme]

Arthur,

I made myself a database that could connect to another database and list
the tables, fields, indexes, relationships and all their properties into a
table.  It was just a quick tool to solve a temporary need.
I went no further than that, so you are in territory I haven't been to.

It looks like I was intending to run some SQL on the remote database but I
never quite got there.  I must have solved my issue another way.
