Dear Group, Long time... My wife, Janet, is doing Access 2007 work for a company in Manitowoc, WI. She commutes once or twice a week, but is able to work from home otherwise (it's about 40-45 miles away). The company has an AS400 and their Access databases link to the AS400 tables via ODBC. Up to now, their Access apps have all been stored on servers without being separated into FE/BE. Janet is beginning the process of splitting the databases. One big question, though: If an Access database has ODBC links to AS400 tables and she splits that database into front end and back end, will the new front end be able to use the AS400 tables via the back end? Or does each front end have to link to the ODBC tables separately and only link to the Access tables in the back end? I couldn't remember what was required, so I thought I'd ask y'all. Regards, Steve Erbach Neenah, WI
