VBA Code?
All tables are in the Tables Collection, and, my recollection is that there
is pretty good Help on using it. Of course, if you are running Access 2003,
there are some who would argue that none of its "online primary" Help is
very good.
That's what I used to do back when I worked on an Access client to Informix,
to convert a Development database into a Production database for
distribution. Of course, for that situation, you had to delete the TableDef
and create a new TableDef, but it wasn't a big problem.
Matter of fact, isn't there code in the Solutions.MDB sample database for
re-linking tables? Visit the Knowledge Base at
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;248674 for download
instructions. (Or search for Knowledge Base article 248674.

Hi, all
I have moved a backend/frontend database (2 mdb files) to a different
computer, a task done over and over in the past. The location on the
second computer has a different path name from the location on the former
computer.
When I try to refresh the table links at the new location through the
Linked Table Manager, the window that appears that usually holds all of the names
of the tables to be refreshed, is totally empty. Of course, I can't link
anything.
Manually deleting and relinking the tables in the frontend is possible,
but painful as a final solution every time. Any suggetions to troubleshooting
this one would be appreciated.
