Strange/Lock Out From SharePoint
I have been making databases a while and been helping my cousin on the other side of the country out via an Access front end linked to a SharePoint backend. Its been working fine for about a year or...
Have you tried the trouble-shooting steps and work around described here?
This is the issue I am meaning.
If I try and open the Sharepoint Linked Manager loads the existing link. No matter what I do. I am assuming this is some existing link perhaps in registry and this is preventing the link being reestablished?
If I click through it will then ask for user name and we go dancing down a rabbit hole to the existing connection blah blah.
Thank you for clarifying the specific circumstances.
What happens if you go through this option:
- Same ring a rosy
- I forgot; did you create a new accdb and try to link to the SP lists from it?
- Yes I tried that, and had the same result. As I said it seems to me I need to be able to delete the old connection completely from the Linked Table manager and start again. However, I cannot, so far, discover how this can be done.
