Linked table manager
Can anyone explain why my Linked table manager would not be working when I
have some tables that are linked to other databases. I cannot see which one they are linked to nor can I update them, If I move my database. Thanks this has just started it has worked beautifully before. |

What do you mean by 'it's not working'?
Is the option grayed out? Try deleting the tables and relinking them. -Dorian "Akrt48" wrote: Can anyone explain why my Linked table manager would not be working when I have some tables that are linked to other databases.

No they are not greyed out the manager is blank when I bring it up while
highlighting the table. The table shows the link arrow but I cannot get a reading in the manager. "mscertified" wrote: What do you mean by 'it's not working'? Is the option grayed out?

Linked table manager
Can you open the linked tables?
Are you selecting Tools--Database Utilities--Linked table manager. If you see no links there, I'd try deleting the links and recreating them -Dorian "Akrt48" wrote: No they are not greyed out the manager is blank when I bring it up while highlighting the table.

That's what I am doing, and I have tried doing that but they still don't
show? I must have something turned off but I can't figure out what. "mscertified" wrote: Can you open the linked tables? Are you selecting Tools--Database Utilities--Linked table manager.

Linked table manager
FWIW - I have the same problem on four different computers. The linked
tables work properly from the Database window. The Tools Database Utilities Linked Table Manager is launched correctly, but *no* tables appear in its list. This is under Windows 2000, XP Home, or XP Pro running Access 2002 or 2003 in various combinations. I don't know whether there's a connection, but each of these computers also has Access 97, in which the Linked Table Manager works properly. I work around it by a) using a programmatic relinking routine or b) delete the tables and relink them manually.

Linked table manager
I am also running Windows XP Pro and Access 2003, I don't have the luxury of
the access 97 though. I wonder what the flaw is?. The links are working fine, just not the ability to change or update them with a broad swoop.
