Is there a way to make a primary key in a linked table?

Is there a way to make a primary key in a linked table. I don't have Access
project set up, just regular Access and I don't know much about SQL. Basic
instuctions will be very helpful.

The Primary Key can be set up *only* in the table itself, in the back
end where the table resides. A linked table cannot have a primary key
other than that which exists in the table itself.

You've asked a couple of related questions, and I'm trying to figure
out just what you're trying to accomplish! Care to post some more
details of the context?
