Hi Bobby

Sorry, too fast, of course if the path to the backend has changed permanently, relinking is needed.

Hi Bobby

In my experience you don't even need to go that "far". Just open a mandatory table and catch the error. If success, fine; if fail, either the backend has been moved or - more likely - a network error exists or the drive mapping has been lost or the backend is corrupted. Each of these errors calls for very different further checks as well as messages to and actions from the user. But still no relinking - as soon as the error has been corrected, the app will run again.
