Trying again:ODBC connection to mdb for MacIntosh

Hi, I already asked this question once, but the responses I got didn't get
me all the way to a usable answer. I'm guessing that once a MVP has
answered a question they consider it closed, so asking for clarification on
the same thread didn't work. So I'm pasting in the previous question, the
answer I got, and my request for clarification.

Thanks!
