At first I thought it should be possible, because .NET usually supports ODBC and thus connects to MS Access database. Linq to SQL and ADO.NET Entity Framework appear to be the most popular data providers for ASP.NET dynamic data. However, there seem to be some issues that require modifying data providers to make them compatible with EF, and Linq 2 Sql only supports MS SQL Server. Because of this, simply MS SQL Server and MS SQL Server Compact look like support


EF at the moment. However, there is one last hope. According to this post on the Microsoft forums, you can implement your own Entity framework provider to support access or ODBC in general.
