    SQL connection verification when opening database

    When my front end opens, it first looks to see if it can see the back end file on the network (If FSO.FileExists(strServerPath) = True). If it does (true) then it makes sure that the tables are linked to that source. If it does not see the back end on the primary server, it looks for a back...
