Re: linked tables not working

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Might be the issue noted in this MS Knowledge Base article:

BUG: List of currently linked tables may not appear in Linked Table Manager
Wizard in a database in Access 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835519/en-us


Most of us MVPs and others have been successful with fixing this problem
only by manually changing the registry key value (the article discusses
this); reregistering the accwiz.dll file hasn't worked for most of us.

When I need to link a table, I open an Access file to the database window,
click Files | Get External Data | Link ..., then set the type of
table/data
and locate the source. If an Access db, I then select which table(s) and
click OK. This works for me, unless the tables I'm linking to are system
tables (or hidden) and I have those check boxes in options unchecked.

Is this the process you are using?

I am trying to do a simple link table.
Access does not show the liked tables.
If I import I get the same result (can't see the tables)
