Linked tables - mapped drive issue

[yippie_ky_yay]

Hello,

I've got a split db and I need for the link between the two to be:
\\server\name\myBEdb.mdb
instead of:
S:\name\myBEdb.mdb

The server name will not change - so I don't need anything dynamic.

Will this need to be done via VBA and, if so, could someone point me in the right direction please? Also, if I do have to use VBA to dynamically set it, will there be a performance hit?

Thanks!

I use Linked Table manager to set the UNC path to my tables.
But I use Access 2002

When you do the link, type in the server name like you showed it or go to the Network to select the path. See the attached jpegs that show what I do.

Thank you both for your replies!

fuzzygeek's solution was exactly what I was hoping for (never occured to me to just type the link in there). Everything's working well!

Thanks again!
