Hello,

There is a difference in mine and my friend's Access, which causes some problems. 

We have the same version of Access (32bit, 16.0.10827.20118), but our Linked Table Manager looks totally different.

Also it has another functionalities, than the other one (look at screenshots below).

We are wondering, if this is a case of settings, or should we check somewhere else?

Thank you in advance!

    Could one be Access 2016 (MSI) and the other be Office 365 Access (CTR)?

    The LTM has been rewritten and is gradually being releassed. One of you already has the new version. Some editions of Office (MSI)  it may be a long time for it appears.

    Functionality: see

    Just noticed this on my version. Where is the prompt to link to different location?

    Never mind. Should have looked closer. It is the Relink button.

    Hello,

    Please tell, how the improved LTM is being broadcasted?

    It is done via automatic updates?

    Can you estimate, if it can appear in period of a few days, weeks or rather months?

    Cheers, Maciek
