Splitting DB Problem

Okay, I'm feeling pretty silly, but I cannot get my backend DB to link to my frontend DB. The backend is on another network drive; I went through the steps and told it to go to G drive like the directions say. I then when to my FE and told it to link all tables to my BE. It finds where to go, says the links are updated. No go when I test them. I try in reverse...BE to FE and it says it cannot find any links. I can get the FE/BE to work on the same drive, but not on two drives. I'm sure there is an easy answer, but I've been battling this for hours and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I even went to Export Data and Make Links and when it brings up the table form, it's empty (yes, there is data/tables) . I will need to set up another FE on another computer also(two users right now). I know this is supposed to be simple, but I just don't know what's up.

Thanks!

Never mind..it suddenly worked on it's own.. Is it possible the network server is slow? Thanks!
