I split a database (without first making a copy of it) on my local machine and put the front end on a shared network drive. now no one can open any of the forms since the back end is on my machine.

is there a way to undo this or to split the database on the network drive so that users can get in?

i want to avoid having to redo the database from the ground up.

PLEASE HELP!


thanks.

Just copy the Backend file into the Server location, and relink the Front end with the backend..

Cut the Backend file and Paste it into the Server location. Then follow these steps in the Front end file...
