Hi john Broadly speaking using the double backslash then share/ip address should work fine in your linking/re-linking E.g. \\SomeShare\SomeFolder\SomeMDBFile.mdb - should work fine. I would like to say "regardless of the network type" but I'm not a network nerd and know little of such things D -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of John Clark Sent: Tuesday, 16 July 2013 5:11 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] When it rains it pours! OK...I've figured it out...by accident really. I had to type the UNC path into the "File Name" box, and it appears to let me enter it. It seems to have worked for the program I inherited today...our Pistol Permit office. However, I'm having some issues w/the one I've spent 3 days on...our Risk Management dept...of course I'd get a problem there; the whole things has been problem after problem. But, this is rights I think...nothing y'all can help with there.
