Hello
I need to work on a database including linked
dbase tables in two locations, on a shared
drive at our office and on my local workstation at home. It is easy to ftp files back and forth, and to copy both the .mdb and .dbf files. However, the references in the .mdb file to the linked .dbf tables use full path names. Since the files are on different drives, even though the directory names are the same, it is necessary to update the links with linked table manager each time a copy is made.
Is there a way to avoid this by setting access to use relative path names without
the full path.
Thanks
