Read or Write to an Access DB
Hello all.

I was wondering if it is possible using NSIS or NSIS in conjuction with some other "helper" (plug-in/util) backend to read or write to either an Access database file (MDB) or a MS SQL database? I'm just looking to read a table, and display it in a custom NSIS page, but would love to be able to import a full table in the future too. Thanks all for looking.

A quick Google search found iodbc, an open-source command line ODBC client. As far as I know, MS SQL database supports ODBC, so this should do the trick.
