What error message are you getting from Access when trying to import or link the data from the .dbf files? Do the .dbf files have coinciding .inf files? That's a file that Jet likes to put in there for Access to 'know' where the .cdx files are for the .dbf files. If there is a mapped drive letter in there, Access get's flaky, and doesn't ask for the location of the index files, it just assumes the worse and says it can't find them.

I tried linking the tables to an Access database but apparently I can't do that. I tried to set up the ODBC thingy in the ODBC manager but got stuck on the DSN field. Don't know what to put there. Can someone get me pointed in the right direction?
