Without Access Services being turned on is it possible to create an OLE DB connection string that will allow me to connect a Nevron Chart to an access database that is currently hosted on my SharePoint 2010 site? The database is in the Access 2007 file format.

Tried searching the web and using the forum search tool here but didn't yield and answers that are specific to what I am looking for. I know that Nevron can connect to SharePoint lists, but I am hoping to use a direct database connection.

You can try to use an ODBC connection - you must however make an ODBC DNS on the machine on which SharePoint runs.

Thanks for the response! As I don't have direct control over the servers I will have to look into it in the future.
