I have a table in an Access database that is linked to/as as text file.

There is a black arrow next to it and the icon is a text file's icon. (Green notepad)

How can I unlink this?

Thanks!
Brian

 
I don't know a way to convert the link, but you can simply re-import into a new table from the text file and then delete the linked table.

Deleting the linked table only deletes the link and does not affect the underlying text file. J. Jones
