Help refreshing ODBC tables in Access

69
Hello all,

I have an Access front end database that has a linked table that resides on SQL server.

Even though all machines in my company are set up the same way, whenever I make a change to the Access database and then publish it out to my users, they have to do a manual refresh of the link to the table that resides on the SQL server

I was hoping that something like - CurrentDB.TableDefs.Refresh would get me there, but it doesn't.

Is there any way I can make that table refresh happen when the database loads without the user having to do anything?

I appreciate any help.

Thanks,
narpet

As the database is ignorant of the change until a Refresh (or Requery) is done, I don't think it can be triggered automatically.
You could try a periodically scheduled Requery if that suits your needs.
