Here's the code that I use. It assumes that the BE and FE are in the 
same directory.  

As someone pointed out on the list the
"If Left$(tdfloop.Connect, 10) = ";DATABASE=" " can fail under 
certain circumstances (I can't remember the details, but under some 
setups, there is another parameter bfore the "DATABASE" - can anyone 
refresh my memory?).  This has always worked in my apps though.



Option Compare Database
Option Explicit

Function RelinkTables() As Long
Dim tdfloop As TableDef
With CurrentDb
        For Each tdfloop In .TableDefs
            If Left$(tdfloop.Connect, 10) = ";DATABASE=" Then _
               tdfloop.Connect = ";DATABASE=" & ApplDir & _ 
filename(Mid$(tdfloop.Connect, 11))
               tdfloop.RefreshLink
            End If
        Next tdfloop
End With
End Function

Function pathname(fullpath As String) As String
Dim STemp As String
pathname = Left$(fullpath, InStrRev(fullpath, "\"))
End Function

Function filename(fullpath As String) As String
    Dim STemp() As String
    STemp() = Split(fullpath, "\")
    filename = STemp(UBound(STemp))
End Function

Static Function ApplDir() As String
   Dim strApplDir As String
   Dim strTemp As String
   If strApplDir = "" Then
    strTemp = DBEngine(0)(0).Name
    strApplDir = Left$(strTemp, InStrRev(strTemp, "\"))
   End If
   ApplDir = strApplDir
End Function
