Answer:
If you do the archive at module level , the links will not appear. You need to archive at projevt level , then it will work.

Does anyone know if it is possible to restore links based on an archive of modules and link modules? We have received an archive of Modules and link modules from our outside teaming partner yet when it is restored there are no links available. I have seen on this site a posting from 2004 that said this couldnt be done at the module level is that still the case or has that been addressed?

thanks,
Clif

It is also worth remembering that the absolute boundary for links is the Project, any links that cross a project boundary will not be restored. If you have good relations with your teaming partner, you could ask them to add attributes containing the full path to the link destinations, then you could write a script to rebuild the links. I believe there is something in 'the kitchen scripts' to do just this. If I remember rightly, I read that Louie does something like this by default?

One clever trick I use when all the modules are in a single folder (source, target, linkmod), is to convert the folder to a project, archive it, and convert it back to a folder. Alternatively you can archive the entire project selecting only the specific source-target-link modules you care about.
