I have a database that will be running on a private "home" network. The backend will be on the C shared drive of the primary computer. (The primary computer is serving as the network drive) The primary computer as well as two secondary computers will run the frontend. The frontends will establish a link on open to the backend tables located on the primary computer.

So the primary computer will link to c:/folder/test.mdb for the tables.
The two secondary computers will link to network/folder/test.mdb for the tables.

Is there a way to code the link so the same front end can be used on all three computers? Obviously I can code two versions of the frontend but of course I don't want to do that.

Specific examples would be much appreciated. I have a tendency to miss the small details (like quotes).

Thanks in advance!
