The linked table manager just shows the tables linked to the original
database backend and the choices are to select the tables to update the
linked tables. It doesn't give you the option to delete the link or change
it to new tables/database.


As a matter of fact, it does, though it's perhaps not too obvious. Check the
"Always prompt for new location" checkbox at the bottom of the manager screen.

Thank you very much -- that is exactly what I needed and I did not see that
before. I appreciate your help!
