Database does not open via mapped drive

[jk12]

As the thread title suggests, my problem is that I have a database that will not open via the mapped drive. There are other databases stored on this drive that open fine so it is only the one database that is causing me a headache.

Any suggestions as to why only this one database would be having this problem and any ideas on how to resolve it would be greatly appricated.

Thanks

When you say 'will not open' what do you mean? You can see the .mdb file but when you double click to open it it gives you some kind of error message?

I can see the file but when i double click to open it nothing happens. No error messages simply nothing. However, it will open if it is open via the Open file option within Access. Sounds strange I know

Did you save the mdb then cut and paste it to that location?
Try Save As to the location you want but Compact and Repairing when you save.
Tools > Database Utilities > Compact and Repair Database...

The problem sounds like that it cant find the MSACCESS.exe file when you double click onit so thats y I 'm telling you to save as within access to that location as the saved file should store a path to you MSACCESS.exe. if you know wat i mean...
