[AccessD] "Can't open the file ..." but it's not there.

Kathryn,
Opened your report.  Error pops up.

 Open report in design view and click on the photo. In the properties
box it references the D: drive and location in the error box.

I asked about this as a side note to my booklet post but got no takers
on that part. ABCtest.mdb in
http://www.altadenabaptist.org/problems/photodir. Though all my photo
paths start with O:\Online\abc\photos, they used to start with
D:\MyFiles\Online\abc\photos. When I open the report that's currently in
the mdb (a few other places as well), it comes up with an error that
"Microsoft Office Access can't open the file
'D:\MyFiles\Online\abc\photos\b\bassettdavid.jpg'." I can't find
anyplace where that D:'MyFiles...etc is referenced anymore, so why does
it say that? If I click ok, it then goes on to make the report and
everything else seems to work. Can anybody find where in the mdb it's
referenced so I can change it?

Thanks,
