Linking from Access 2000 to Access 97

I have a database that I want to setup both an Access 97 and 2000
front-end to. When I link to the Access 97 database from Access 2000
I can't update/delete/or add data. I can only view it. However, when
I link from 97 to 97 it works fine. Is there a way to make this work
so that a 2000 front end can fully manipulate the data in a 97
backend?

re: Linking from Access 2000 to Access 97


A2000 can have linked tables from an A97 mdb and the data in the tables can
be edited, deleted and inserted.

There must be something else happening.
