Err Msg: "MS Jet database could not find object..."

[BaudKarma]

I frequently get the error message "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'whatever'" when I'm trying to import or link to an external file. The workaround is simple, I just rename the file to something short and simple, and the Jet db engine is happy. I'm wondering if anyone has a workaround for this little snag.



I try not to let my ignorance prevent me from offering a strong opinion.

Met up with the same problem from a db table created from a third party software. Foxpro 2.5 had no problem. Access choked.

Thanks for the quick and accurate answer to my problem.
