Setting a Reference to another Access MDB

[ag]

Hi,<br>
<br>
Has anyone come across the following behaviour?<br>
<br>
Access 97, SR2.<br>
<br>
Working in VBA in one MDB I need to make a reference out to an MDB containing generic code routines that is located on a Banyan-Vines network.<br>
<br>
a) Locate the database<br>
b) Set the reference by selecting from the browse dialog box.<br>
<br>
At this point, a messgae box appears: Unable to set reference (this is before clicking the OK button on the dialog box).<br>
<br>
If both databases are resident on the local hard drive, the reference can be set with no problem.<br>
<br>
Network rights are Read, Write, Create.<br>
<br>
Working on a Microsoft network (in-house) this behavious does not occur.<br>
<br>
Any ideas? <br>
<br>
TIA<br>
<br>
Andrew<br>
