Folks, I sent this to the AccessD list with no responses. Possibly some one on this list can share their insight in how best to use an Access front end connected to a SQL Server BE via ODBC. What I am trying to learn is how to do this most efficiently from the SQL Server perspective. Do you use queries from Access, move all queries to SQL server and pass parameters where required, etc. I am know that there are some design guidelines that should be followed with designing a system with an Access front end connected to a SQL Server back end via ODBC to obtain good performance. This is a pretty broad question, but could any of you folks who do this on a regular basis provide a list of the techniques and design approaches you follow or point me to some references? I am not looking for a treatise on the subject just a list of items to be aware of and good design practices. Thanks in advance. Doug
