Can I make changes to forms and linked tables in a database that resides on
the server without going to the server? In other words - can the changes be
made from my own PC? I'm getting pop-up messages that say that I can't make
changes to linked tables......

Thanks.
 
Table changes need to be made in the database where the actual tables live.
Assuming you know the name of the backend database on the server, open it,
rather than the frontend, and make the changes there.
 
Open the back end mdb, the one that actually contains the tables, and make
the changes there.
