In a make table query, my DestinationDB is as follows:

\\Pcsden-cfx01\Data\Denver Buildout\Data\Applications Tables

This keeps giving me a file not found type of error. Does this format not work in make table queries?

A bit maddening, input please.

Thanks.

I've seen problems before under some apps and certain O/S where the directory name was a problem. Do a test to see if eliminating spaces works. Next try to shorten directory names to 8 length. htwh... Steve Medvid

Steve-
The naming convention was correct within the OS but it seems that Access was taking precedence over the OS (NT4). Removing the embedded spaces took care of the problems.

Thanks for your input.
