Setting alias to the database and not including the table

[paulcudd]

i'm not sure how CR uses the 'alias' method. I dont mean to be pedantic but a database is a collection of tables and not an individual table and this may be part of the problem of how i'm trying to use the Alias method

When I try to set the alias from Database\Set Alias it encapsulates the table, eg C:\Pdoxwin\Private\invoices.db is equal to the alias PRIV.
I want the alias to point only to the database,
eg C:\Pdoxwin\Private.
If at later date I move all my 300 tables i simply change the alias's path, that is one alias amended.
C:\Newlocation\Pdoxwin\Private
As it stands now I am giving an alias to every table. If I move my 300 tables I would be required to amend every alias.
eg PRIV = C:\Newlocation\Pdoxwin\Private\invoices.db

Your help to a new CR'er will be much appreciated.
