Linked tables in Access [VB .Net 2005]

Hi all, I found many posts about this problem... but unfortunately I
still can't solve it.

I have an Access DB with some linked tables (to text files).
From Access itself I can open these tables and run every query I want

with no problem.... all works correctly.

But..creating a new data connection from Server Explorer in Visual
Studio 2005, as soon as I try to open a table, or run a new query, or
run a query stored in Access I receive this error:

"The text file specification '...' does not exist. You can't import,
export or link using the specification."
Strange, I can see this text file specification in the hidden Access's
tables.

In the same folder where mdb and text files are stored there's also a
schema.ini files, correctly configured (it works from VS).

Does Anybody know if this is a known Visual Studio issue ?

Any idea to solve this problem ?

Thank you all in advance !!
