Linked tables in Access allow you to treat external tables as if
they were part of the opened database. They do not have to be Access
tables. For example, I used an Access database to open, read, and
write to a group of dBase tables (files). I do not believe Firebird
as this ability since there would be no way to apply triggers,
generators, or domains to an external dBase file.
