Hi!

I have set a reference to a mdb-file, whcich I use to logg all errors in my
application. This is verry handy when the user forget to give me enough
detailed information about some runtime error.

Now to my Q:

1.) When I´m going to deliver my application do I have to set the reference
on each pc where the front end are installed?

2.) If so, is it possible to do so programaticly? If <Yes>, how?

TIA!

References live in the MDB, so it's not necessary to set them on a
machine-by-machine basis.

However, it is critical that the referenced mdb be in the correct location
on each machine: if it's not, and the reference gets broken, you'll run into
problems with other, unrelated functions.

OK!

Thank´s!

I asume you mean with "correct location = same location as when I did set
the reference at the verry beginning, or?

Thanks for helping out!

The reference points to a specific location, which should be wherever it was
on the development machine. The same version of the file needs to exist in
that same location on each client machine.
