Network Drive Letter

K

Ken

I am using a front-end back-end database on a network
server. Not all users map to the same network drive
letter, so the linked tables dont work unless they have
the database on the correct drive.

Is there a way of checking what drive letter a network
path is mapped to and refresh the linked table manager to
the users drive letter on opening the database.

Thanks

Rather than do this, link your Tables by specifying the
full server path, rather than using a drive letter: -

Instead of X:\Databases\Data\MyDatabase.Mdb

Use \\MyServer\Databases\Data\MyDatabase.Mdb.
