How can I use SSMS to display and query an Access database tables.

I can see all the tables when I use a Visual studio dataset designer tool, But i want to be able to do that using SSMS.

Any idea, pls?

You will only be able to use the GUI portions of SSMS with SQL Servers. You can query Oracle, but it will be all with text. Oracle markets its own Enterprise Manager.

You should be able to see all Tables and views with the help of linked server. You just need to expand the server object and under that you are there.

If you just like to see Orace tables, better to use Oracle client tool.
