[AccessD] Read External File for Path String

Hello Everyone,

I just spent half the day struggling with the movement of a system from one
server to another.  The server path is hardcoded in one place in a startup
form.  What would have helped me a lot is to have the path in a text file or
ini file external to the database and stored in the same folder.

Security is not an issue here, just my convenience, as my plans for the day
were pretty much blown up!

Using a file for information like this sounds like it might be a fairly
typical solution.  Does anyone do this or something like it?

Thanks!
Dan Waters
