A colleague was programming our Access database before I was asked to make a
few changes on it because we changed PCs. On loading, it tries to locate
the .mdb & graphic files on a particular drive - \\mdb-filesrv\goodguys.
"mdb-filesrv" was the network name of the former PC which is no longer in
use, and "goodguys" was the name of the folder with the "goodguys.mdb" file.
I've use the "Find" menu command to search through the vba codes for a clue
without luck. Please, how do I make it point to the new PC whose network
name is "mdb-filesrv-2": The folder is still the same - "goodguys".
Thanks.

Hello Billy Boy,
i think that you have to change the linked tables. See Menu Tools -
Add-Ins - Tablelink-Manager (or similar, in German "Extras - Add-Ins -
Tabellenverknüpfungs-Manager).
