I am wondering how one would call the linked tables applet with out pressing
file, external data, linked files.
 
Personal preference mostly. The RunCommands allow you to automate the
Access GUI (graphical user interface). However, this is limited if you ever
run your database in the Runtime environment and I am called to do that
occasionally. So I usually use VBA to create my own interface functions,
thereby not relying on the built in interface.

So in your case, I would create my own relinking function. In fact, on my
website (www.rogersaccesslibrary.com), is a small Access database sample
called "RelinkOnOpen.mdb" which does just that. It's not a general as the
Linked Table Manager, but it links the actual tables I have, which is all I
need for a particular application.
