There is no limit to the number of records in a table.
The practical limit is that the database size cannot exceed 2GB.

No specific limit, as Allen says; in practice, about the largest
production Access database table that I know of has some 20,000,000
records. Tens to hundreds of thousands of records are quite routine
and managable.
