I'm not a beginner, but there are some things about Access 2003 that I find
confusing. One of them is a design using a Front and Back End. We have a
database at work that tracks student registration. I split into a Front and
Back End about 6 months ago. The Back End is located on our J drive. When we
back it up, we back up both the front and back end.
However, if I try to open the backup on my home computer, it cannot find the
J drive and therefore it will NOT open. It appears as if the J drive is hard
coded inthe backup. How in the world do I get around this issue? What good is
backing up the data if I can't open the database at home?
Today my co-worker couldn't get into the J drive so he opened the database
and entered data from the F drive. Nonetheless, all of the data properly went
into the back end on the J drive. That's what I would have expected, but I'm
not sure I fully understand that.
Thanks,
Robert
