I'm trying to get data from a linked access table using VBA in Outlook
'97.  Non-linked access tables work just fine.  However, a linked
table produces an Invalid Page Fault.  Here's the code:

set dbe=Application.CreateObject("DAO.DBEngine.35")
set conDb=dbe.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase("MyData.mdb",1)
set rstCust=conDb.OpenRecordset("Select * from LinkedTable", 4)

Is anybody else able to access linked tables?

Silly question :-)

Why not use the original source of the data rather than through a link in
an Access database?

Cauz I've not done that before :)    Here's what I've got:

Server Name: sys1000.2110
Server DSN:    CeilSrv
User Name:     smith
Password:        xyz

How would I set it up so that I could connect with that info?

Below is a direct copy from the Connection Object in help. So no guarantees
but hopefully it will point you in the right direction
