Linked Table VS Import Table

 Linked Table VS Import Table

      I just got a set of databases and one of them contain many Linked
tables. I think it is not convenient so I want to combile all of them into
only one database. Therefore I delete Linked table and then import a same
table from the original source. It should work but unfortunately it didn't
work. It said "The link to database is fail" How can I overcome this? Please
help me.

For starters, don't change things you don't understand.  Most likely, there
was code running on start up to relink the tables.  Now that the tables are
no longer linked, the code fails.

Thanks for your help
Could you please show me some function or keyword in VBA that might used for
maintaining the link.

Best Regards,

The code should look like

    tdf.Connect = "Path to mdb"
    tdf.RefreshLink
