Hello,

To connect Access to SQL Server you can use two methods: ODBC or ADO. If you use ODBC to connect through Jet then it is recommended that you use DAO because ADO’s performance is poor.  For example, using ADO and SQL Server Native Client will cause update failure to computed columns. The following site has some good examples.

I hope this is helpful.
