Cannot locate dabatase!!

I have a database created that I originally saved on my desktop. I decided
to create a folder in my documents and save the information there.

My problem is that when I access the folder and attempt to run any of my
reports, I get the message that it cannot find the information.

What do I need to do?

I have a "front end database" linked to a back end database that contains my
tables, queries, etc. Both of these are in the same location on my
computer.

I have a "front end database" linked to a back end database that contains my
tables, queries, etc. Both of these are in the same location on my
computer.
Click to expand...

Open the frontend database; on the menu select Tools... Database
Utilities... Linked Table Manager. Select all the tables, and click
the button to relink them. You'll get a Windows file dialog to locate
the new folder for the backend.

I am linking tables. I have sent another copy to this computer, attempted
to link by both Tools option and getting external data. I cannot get them
to link. I can open the front end, but when I attempt to use any of the
reports, etc. I get the message that it is not a valid path name. I have
checked and determined that everything is in the correct place and I am
selecting the correct info to link. How do I get these two to link?
