Is this a permanent link you want to maintain and have many links to Excel files?
Basically, this is a conversion database that formats a bunch of files we get for loading into a software program we have. The Excel file has 6 tabs, so I have 6 linked tables, one for each tab. So this conversion database gets re-used over and over with different files, hence the desire to be able to programmitically change the links.
Would be easier to just rename the new file and replace the existing Excel file. Can be done programmatically.
That's not a bad idea and certainly would work.
I guess I am at the point now where I already have a working solution (the code I posted in post #3), and now I am really just curious if there actually is a simple way to do what I first requested, which is to update/change Excel links via VBA without having to drop the table first.
If there's not, I have no problem implementing the workarounds we talked about. Just trying to augment my knowledge by trying to learn some new techniques I may not be familiar with!
Thanks
