Question : Could not find linked table, problem when adding tables

I am running into this problem with MS-Access. I am able to bring in a set of tables from our server using odbc but when i try to bring in a different set of tables from the same server it is throwing me this error:

could not execute query; could not find linked table [microsoft][odbc driver for oracle][oracle]ORA=00942: table or view does not exist(#942)

I know this new set of tables works because I am able to access them in other applications over the same connection. Any idea as to what is up?

Answer : Could not find linked table, problem when adding tables

My guess is that you are bringing the tables in programatically. If this is true, you may want to check how you are logging into the database. Does the DB user you are logging in as have permissions to see the tables? If so, are you sure you are referencing the tables correctly (you may need to prepend the schema (or is it user?) name to the table name. Just a thought, FWIW. Good luck solving your issue!

Er, just reread your comment, and we may be talking about the same thing. Might be able to solve it with a permissions fix in Oracle, if I understand what you are saying correctly.
