    Input form for an excel linked access table?

    Guys,



    One of the tables in my access file is a linked excel file. I however now want to create a form with which I want people can enter information in the table. However when I try to do this, it doesn't work. Does anybody know whether it's possible to create an input form for an excel linked access table?

    Thanks in advance.

    Marc

    Cannot edit Excel linked table. Can search and filter and join in queries but can't edit.
