|
Answer» Hi guys, Because of legal issues, Microsoft has disabled the functionality in Access 2003 and in Access 2002 that let users change the data in linked tables that point to a range in an Excel workbook. I'm sorry contrex ..you're right.. I'm using Access 2000 as my database..and every time I try to open a file in access I get this messege, it won't let me do any changes. Is this help?? OK you did your penance This is expected behaviour (it is meant to happen, it is not a fault). The reason it happens is: because of legal issues, Microsoft has disabled the functionality in Access that let users change the data in linked tables that point to a range in an Excel workbook. However, when you make changes directly in the Excel workbook, the changes appear in the linked table in Access.

Hello! I am getting the same error, but my SCENARIO is different. I am running Access 2003. I have a VB line that is exporting the CONTENTS of a table into a text file.
