I have a multiuser 2000 database that I need to sent externally,

However a "disk or newtork error" message appears when it is accessed
off the server

How can I isolate the database so thats its not dependant on the
server? How can find what / where links it?

Many Thanks
Ato.

Are you copying it to a CD or DVD? If so it is being changed to a read
only file and Access does not work properly as a read only file or in a
directory were the user does not have full read, edit, create and delete
rights.
 
Assuming you've updated all the links and search-and-replace any paths in
code, check the following which are generally 'invisible'

1) no queries have property "Destination DB" filled in directly. This will
be invisible to search-and-replace and will give that error.
2) all library references are updated

HTH,
Peter
