It works, but it shouldn't! Why?

About linked tables...

I've got an Access 97 mdb linking to another Access 97 mdb
on another pc on the network. The connection path in the
linked table manager is:

\\pcname1\MTX-W\TDRWD.mdb

It links to the table without a problem, but the trouble
is that the path does not exist! TDRWD.mdb is actually at:

\\pcname1\WST\TDRWD.mdb

MTX-W does not even exist, so how does it find TDRWD.mdb?

It works, but this worries me, because I obviously don't
understand everything about linking tables over a
network. Any ideas?

Thanks for any help.
