Thomas, one if the items the JET 4 Service Pack 8 addresses is:
    Invalid argument error message occurred when you tried to create
    a linked table by using DAO code after the installation of Jet 4.0 SP7.

Locate msjet40.dll (typically in windows\system32). Right-click, and choose
Version. If it is not 4.0.8015.0, download Jet 4 SP8. Details:
