Is there a way to make a table in an external database the RecordSource of a
form in the local database? How, if so?

Use a query with the IN phrase in the FROM clause:

SELECT table.fielda, . . .
FROM table IN "pathtootherdb"
WHERE . . .
ORDER BY . . .

Sheesh, I forgot to mention the easy way, just link to the
table in the other db.
