Mapped drives in Linked Table Manager

Guest

Hi there, I have split my DB and the Linked Table Manager now lists the
linked tables. However this reference is via a mapped drive (p:\mydb\etc)
which means that each user of the system must have their P: drive mapped to
this location. Is there a way I can refer to the server and path eg:
\\myserver\path\mydatabase rather than a mapped drive?

Thank you Tim

When you navigate to the back-end database through the Linked Table Manager,
navigate through Network Neighborhood rather than through the mapped drive.
