Relationships with linked tables

I have a database with a table on a shared network drive. The table contains a list of buildings, building details and a unique building code. I want to be able to use that database as a master copy so any new buildings that need to be added can be.
I have another database with accounts and another database with some other information. I can create a relationship between the accounts and the linked table of buildings (by the unique building code) but if I am to go into the building table, there is no "expansion option" to see all the accounts for that building. Is there a way to create a proper relationship or at least make a copy of the buildings table so that each time the database starts up it can get the latest version?

Thanks in advance,
Bob
 
These features to expand linked data are not very useful. If you build a proper query drawing data from both tables and display this in a form you will get everything you need.
 
Thanks very much neileg, all done now! Sometimes it helps to just get a fresh perspective on things! Cheers
