Well, Some type of dialog box should appear...
However, you can't use ms-access to link to a mdb access database with
odbc....
It simply don't work...and is not allowed.
Since a ODBC link actually has to link though JET, which then in turn
resolves to a actual file location on disk. Thus, you can't use a odbc link
to a mdb file....
You can, and most certainly should be able to create a linked table to
another mdb file, but this is not a odbc link....
To link to a table in another file, in the tables tab, choose new->link
table...
From the file dialog box...don't choose odbc...but simply choose
"Microsoft Office Access (*.mdb, *mda, *.mde)"
Something similar should appear in the drop down list.... --- of course
ODBC() database also appears in the above drop down list, but as mentioned,
ms-access will not let you do this...
Or, did I miss read your question...and you are talking about the linked
table manager for *existing* tables?
