Note You can link a table only in a Microsoft Access database, not a Microsoft Access project.
To link tables, 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 to 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.
If you're importing, and you want to import just the selected tables' definitions (not the data they contain), click Options, and then under Import Tables, click Definition Only. Learn about importing other database objects.
