Error while linking to another Access database....

[DarkMan]

I need to link to an Access database I created in Access 97 and uploaded to an ftp server. I created a new ftp location and was able to see the directory in the link screen, but when I hit the link button I got the following message:<br>
<br>
'C:\My Documents\ftp:\\site.com\database.mdb' isn't a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.<br>
<br>
The "located in" area only said ftp:\\site.com\database.mdb, does anyone know what is going on here and how to fix it?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Could it be something as simple as your have C:\My Documents in the Default Database Folder selection under Tools, Options, General?<br>
<br>
Try making that box blank and link again.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps.
