Moving Parameter Queries

[Guest]

I have created a Parameter Query that imports transactions from an Access Database on my 'C' drive to "work out the bugs".
It works just fine, however when I move it (as well as the related dqy file and the database) to a shared network drive so that others can access it, it sends back an ODBC driver error message. I am at a loss as to how to remedy this situation without recreating the query (very time consuming) at the new location

Has anyone run into this before

Any efforts will be much appreciated

Sounds like a confused link - am assuming your query pulls
from a linked table or query in the "home" data base. If
this is the case, you might try reconnecting the linked
object from its networked location.
Another possibility (if it applies in your case) is a
confused pathname in a macro. IF your data is being
pulled by macro action, check the pathname in the details
of the macro step that does the import. It must point to
the network location rather than the original C: drive
location.
If I've misunderstood the problem, maybe more detail would
help.

HTH.
