Common dialog & floppy & ado connection

Hi, all!

In my app a user can import a file from a specific location using Save As common dialog. If a file selected is on floppy drive, then when a program tries (later in time) to open ado connection to a mdb, which is on a local hard disk, it tries to access floppy drive. If a diskette is not inserted, a 'Disk or network error' occures. Why is it trying to access the floppy? It looks as if common dialog holds this path somewhere and influences the behaviour of a connection object. Has anyone any idea, what might be happening?

Thank you
Mangro
 
What does the code look like when you open the connection to the database?
