Question : Link External Data - Can a Link Specification be Updated?

Can the Link Specifications be modified after it has been accepted as a linked table?

I have linked a CSV file that contains a large number of fields.  Some are specified as Date/Times, some as Currency, etc...  I found one mistake where I set a Date to Currency.  Is there a way to reopen the "Link Specification" dialog box and correct the definition or do you have to start from scratch and redefine the linked table from the beginning again.

Thanks,
Jerry

ProdOps,

The only way I know of to do this is to actually start another import.
Then click the "Advanced" button, then click the "Specs..." button.

This will open up a lst of all specs in the db.

You can select a Specification, edit it, then save it.

I'd be curious to see if there was a direct way to do this.
