Hi all,
(I have searched and found many articles on this, but none of the solutions fits my needs, unless I am misunderstanding a few)
Due to software licensing restrictions, my (Access 2007) development pc is NOT (may not be) connected to the network.
The user pc's are all connected to the network.
The network pc's only gets Access 2007 Runtime.
The Front-end accde will be located at C:\mydbFE\theFE.accde on each user's pc.
The Back-end will be located at X:\mydbBE\theBE.accdb (network share).
Currently (during development) the Front-end and Back-end is at C:\mydbDEV\FE and C:\mydbDEV\BE respectively - on my development pc, and the linked tables are pointing to C:\mydebDEV\BE.
Now that I'm ready to distribute the database to the user pc's, I obviously need the Front-end's Linked Tables to point to X:\mydbBE\theBE.accdb
Where does Access2007 store the path to the Linked-Tables ?
Is there a way I can change this path manually before making the accde ?
I noticed that the path to the linked tables appear in the (hidden) MSysObjects table, but I do not want to mess with it until I know what the solution is.
Any thoughts from you on this issue is welcome.
Thank you kindly.
Jamie.
