Since the original post, I have additional information. Our corporate staff sent me the “I Series” (an IBM product) software. I installed this software on my PC, and set up an “I Series” ODBC link in an Access 2003 database. I still have the same problem. The same tables that can not be linked in an Access 2003 database with HIT software in an Access 2003 database also can not be linked using the “I Series” ODBC product. These same tables can be linked within an Access 97 database using either product. This is more evidence that the problem is related to something in Access 2003 rather than in the ODBC software. Also, per Perry Harold’s suggestion I checked one of the problem tables and could not find any inappropriate generic names used in any fields indexed or not.
