Geraldo,
If i understand you correctly. The problem could be one of two things.
1) You are linking a table from Access 97 to Access 2002. ie 2 diferent databases.
2) Your tables do not have the same "field name's" or "data types". Make sure your tables are the same thing. The primary purpose of linking tables is updating each other and so it helps having them the same. I hope this helps you in some sort. Tejanorey
