Link Table problem

I have a database that I just put into production (a split database)
named ProductionInven tory.mdb. This was a copy of my development
database in a development folder with the original name
DevelopmentInve ntory.mdb. Before deployment I did the split and the
rename of the db. Now the problem arises where when I alter the folder
paths in the linked table manager on my development database, it
changes the links in my production database. Any clues? Thanks! Dav

I've never heard of that happening. Are you sure you deployed a copy and
not a shortcut to your original? When you open the copy do you get a record
locking file (DevelopmentInv entory.ldb) in the same folder?

It sounds to me like your still linked to the DevelopmentInve ntory
backend.

Hello lads! And ladderettes of course :-) I have a serious issue: I have a table. It consists of: ID Name Link ContentID ID is primary key, and ContentID is the foreign Key.
