I've developed a few aps for a large organization. Much data and back end resides on the network. In my code and tables are links/pointers to files on the network. However, often the network guys change the shared drive structure. For example from P:\corporation\department\division\myapps\mydb.mdb to maybe Q:\corporation\teamname\subteamname\myapps\mydb.mdb

It's a pain in the a$$ to find and replace all this. Is their a simple global find and replace that can do this? Thanks.
 
for modules use the replace on the edit menu
select current project
 
Could you not use UNC path names:

//server-name/shared-folder-name/mydb.mdb
