Link error - several tables with that name

[Richard]

I tried to link to an ODBC table but got following error:

"There are several tables with that name.
Please specify owner in the format ‘owner.table’."

The table I selected was one of many that I have previously linked using:

File/Get external data/link tables/File Type: ODBC databases/Machine Data
Source tab/System type datafile

I don't know what was different about the one table I was trying to link to,
or what a owner.table is. How can I proceed to link to the one table that
gave me the above error?

Thanks
