um its not native. so you may have to come up with your own solution. Maybe try and read the Byte data from it somehow. my guess is that it's going to be a major pain in the butt and possibly impossible.

i m new to Adobe AIR. so i dont know whether its possible to connect .mdb.but i connect with PHP file.whether its possible to communicate with PHP files like HTTP Services ?...please suggest any tutorial for connecting DataBase(.mdb) in AIR..

ya you can have php read it and send you the results. The access database MUST be on the server you are running PHP from. AIR cannot run PHP scripts or any other program.

PHP Access part

retrieve the data from php using URLLoader.
