Can I use the Microsoft Sync Framework to synchronize a local ms (mdb) database with SQL Server?

Question

I see that variations of this question have been asked a couple of times, but none of the answers seemed final.

I'm looking for yes / no as to whether the synchronization environment will accept Access database files as a data / client provider without inefficient and complex workarounds.

I tried to read the Microsoft documentation, but at some point it became Alice In Wonderland.

Thanks in advance.

AFAIK; No, not out of the box.

You need to write your own custom provider.
