I have found the code below but it errors out saying that "object msysaccessstorage already exists". It errors out on the line "CurrentDb.TableDefs.Append tdf".

Option Explicit

Dim dbs As DAO.Database

Dim tdf As DAO.TableDef

Dim mypass As String

Dim mypath As String

Dim myDb As String

Dim TableName As String



Function connectme()


mypass = "test1"

mypath = "C:\Users\Test1\Desktop\"

myDb = "EM1.accdb"


' Delete links so there won't be any duplicates

For Each tdf In CurrentDb.TableDefs

If Left(tdf.Name, 4) <> "MSys" And Left(tdf.Name, 15) <> "tblReportsState" And _

(tdf.Attributes And dbAttachedTable) = dbAttachedTable Then

CurrentDb.TableDefs.Delete tdf.Name

End If

Next tdf

Set tdf = Nothing


' Setup Links

Set dbs = OpenDatabase(mypath & myDb, False, False, "MS Access;PWD=" & mypass)


For Each tdf In dbs.TableDefs

If Left(tdf.Name, 4) <> "msys" Then

TableName = tdf.Name

Set tdf = CurrentDb.CreateTableDef(TableName)

tdf.Connect = ";PWD=" & mypass & ";Database=" + mypath + myDb

tdf.SourceTableName = TableName

CurrentDb.TableDefs.Append tdf

End If

Next


End Function

You are probably getting this error because Access' Tabledefs list does not always immediately reflect changes you make, i.e. a delete. You can refresh it with CurrentDB.TableDefs.Refresh after any .Appends and/or .Deletes, but this takes time, and considering that refreshing linked tables takes a significant amount of time each, time is something you may not be able to afford.

It is better practice to check your TableDefs for pre-existing links and refresh them, not delete and recreate them, as deleting them also deletes any formatting, such as column widths and field formats that a refresh would leave unchanged.

If you have tables that need their links refreshed, change the .Connect property, then use CurrentDB.TableDefs(TableName).RefreshLink

You should only be using CurrentDb.TableDefs.Delete tdf.Name when the source table no longer exists.

I use a method similar to this myself, however I also store the date and time of the last linked table refresh, and only refresh those tables that had their schema modified after that time. With a hundred or more table links and 2+ seconds per table to refresh the links, I need to save all the time I can.

EDIT:

The following code is the code I use to perform a similar task linking MS Access to SQL Server.
