            Statement st = conn.createStatement(); 
            String sql = "Select * from Currencies"; 
            ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(sql);

                System.out.println("\n"+rs.getString(1)+"\t"+rs.getString(2));
            }
        } 
        catch (Exception e) { 
            System.out.println("Exception: "+e.getMessage()); 
        } 
    }
}

I get the following output :

Exception: sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver

Any ideas?

Thank you

So Actually I did the following and worked just fine: 1. Downloaded from somewhere on youtube the files 1. hsqldb.jar 2. jackcess 2.0.4.jar 3. commons-lang-2.6.jar 4. commons-logging-1.1.1.jar 5. ucanaccess-2.0.8.jar

Then right click on the Java library and added as external JARs those JAR files.

and changed the code as :

import java.sql.*;

public class connect { public static void main(String[] args) {

try {
//  Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver").newInstance();
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:ucanaccess://C:/db1.accdb");
Statement st = conn.createStatement(); 
String sql = "Select * from test"; 
ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(sql); 
while(rs.next()){ 
    System.out.println("\n"+rs.getString(1)+"\t"+rs.getString(2));

}
} 
catch (Exception e) { 
    System.out.println("Exception: "+e.getMessage()); 
}

} }

the link for the youtube video is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwgWrznevzc

You can find the files on the description.
