JDBC TYPE-1 DRIVER

Connecting to Access Database using Type-1 Driver

To connect a Java application with Access database using JDBC-ODBC Bridge(type-1) Driver. You need to follow the following steps

Create DSN Name

  1. Go to control panel
    Connecting to access
  2. Go to Administrative tools
    Connecting to access
  3. Select Data Source(ODBC)
    Connecting to access
  4. Add new DSN name, select add
    Connecting to access
  5. Select Access driver from the list, click on finish
    Connecting to access
  6. Give a DSN name, click ok
    Connecting to access

NOTE: Here we are showing this example to create DSN in Window 7 os. For other operating system you need to do small changes.

Example

We suppose that you have created a student table with sid and name column name in access database.
import java.sql.*;
class Test
{
public static void main(String []args)
{
try{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Test", "", "");
Statement s=con.createStatement(); //creating statement 

ResultSet rs=s.executeQuery("select * from student"); //executing statement 

while(rs.next()){
System.out.println(rs.getInt(1)+" "+rs.getString(2));
}

con.close(); //closing connection 

}catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
