I moved my front-end/back-end databases to a new location and need to relink the tables. In the past, I simply told the wizard to select all tables, checked the box to prompt for a new location, clicked OK, then entered the new location of my back-end database.

Now, all of a sudden, I'm being prompted for a new location for each and every table individually! Has anyone run into this before?

If all of your tables were linked to a single database, then it would run as you expected.....but if 1 of the tables is linked to a second source, it WILL prompt you for each and every path. What I usually do is to check all tables linked to a single source, update, then move onto those connected to the next source.

Hope this helps
 
Rick, thanks a million! I did have 3 tables linked to a different db and was able to refresh the links once I followed the 2-step process you advised. Good info to have. Thanks again!
