Backend database - Front end application linking issue

[dealwi8me]

Hello all,

I have a back end database that i cannot access at the moment. Is it possible to set the link of the tables for the front end application based on the location that the database will be even though i can't see that location now?

Thank you in advance.

If you did the linking in code you could do it. Of course you couldn't run the code until the be share was available. Jet needs to open the be in order to link to its tables because it gathers information on the tables and caches it in the fe.
