I have a split database that may need tables to be relinked. I have proven code that does this. See Below. Anyway on this machine I do not have LTM enabled - must not have selected it when installed on machine. Anyway the code is failing and not refeshing the links. Could this be to do with the fact the LTM is not enabled? Has anyone come acrosss this before?

Code:
Function RefreshLinks(MyDatabase As String) As Boolean
' Refresh links to the supplied database. Return True if successful.
' Attempts to connect to mdb named in the jetdatapath setting
' Application fails if mdb not found
' This demo assumes that all the linked tabled appear in the same back end
' Code will need to be manipulated if using side ends.
' Also need to ensure that Miscrosoft DAO 3.6 Object library is referenced

'/Display message on status bar
DoCmd.Echo True, "Refreshng table links, please wait..."
    Dim dbs As DAO.Database
    Dim tdf As DAO.TableDef
    Dim ServerPath As String
    '/Does the path exist
    If Dir(MyDatabase) = "" Then
        MsgBox "Cannot find source database. Please contact system support", vbCritical + vbOKOnly, "Application Failed"
        DoCmd.Quit
    End If
    
    ' Loop through all tables in the database.
    Set dbs = CurrentDb
    For Each tdf In dbs.TableDefs
        ' If the table has a connect string, it's a linked table.
        If Len(tdf.Connect) > 0 Then
            If tdf.Connect <> ";DATABASE=" & MyDatabase Then
                tdf.Connect = ";DATABASE=" & MyDatabase
                Err = 0
                On Error Resume Next
                
                tdf.RefreshLink         ' Relink the table.
                If Err <> 0 Then
                    RefreshLinks = False
                    Exit Function
                End If
            End If
            
        End If
    Next tdf
DoCmd.Echo True, "Done"

    RefreshLinks = True        ' Relinking complete.
    
End Function

Right Got the above sorted.

Now the function is failing in this application. It is failing on

tdf.RefreshLink

Anyone any ideas?
