Thank you for any and all assistance. I'm trying to build a small application.
On my computer the front and backend work great, until I change the name of the
original files to something else, or install it on a computer without MS
Access. Then the link is broken...HELP!
Is there a way to keep the link there, or relink the two databases?

From the front end select Tools, Database Utilities, Linked Table
Manager. Hit "Select All" and check the "Allways Prompt for New
Location" checkbox and click <OK>, locate your BackEnd .mdb file and
you should be good to go...
If you don't have Access installed on the target PC you'll need the
Developer edition of Access to get a license for the Runtime files
that you can then deliver to the client royalty-free.
I have the developer edition of 97, 2000 and 2002, but the only one I can get
to work is the 97. Is there another file, other than the Access and Workstation
file runtimes I need to connect the front and backends?

Thank you for your assistance in advance. I'm trying to figure out why on my
computer the front and back ends are ok, when I use Access developer and set up
the program with the front and back ends in the same install folder, I get
errors and no way to reconnect the front and back end on the foreign computer.
Is there something in the developer package that allows this to happen, that
I'm not loading with the program and setup files?

I have an Access 2000 database split front back end, what I want to do
is have some kind of web based front end so users can logon via the
internet and:
1. Enter new records, edit records in the database
2. Apply a filtering systems where records on a report can be limited to
those matching a criteria, then print or PDF this filtered report
including associated pictures.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
