Note You can link a table only in a Microsoft Access database, not a Microsoft Access project.
To link files, on the File menu, point to Get External Data, and then click Link Tables.
Important If you link to a file on a local area network, make sure that you use a universal naming convention (UNC) path, instead of relying on the drive letter of a mapped network drive in Windows Explorer. A drive letter can vary on a computer or may not always be defined, whereas a UNC path is a reliable and consistent way for Microsoft Access to locate the data source that contains the linked table.
