I am using Access 2013 and I moved my frontend ColeDirectory.accdb and backend ColeDirectory.accdb_be to a different folder on the same computer, but now I cannot open the frontend at all. How do I get around this?
 
Is the "new" folder in a "Trusted Location"? Does it open while holding down the shift key? Have you used the Linked Table Manager yet to locate the BE?
 
The folder is on my c:\ drive. I cannot open the frontend no matter how hard I try.
 
What is the failure? Is it in a Trusted Location? Does the original location still work?
 
There is no error. It just won't open. I tried moving the files back to their original location, and that doesn't work either. This is driving me crazy!
 
Yes, but I've done a lot of programming since my last backup, so I really want to know what is causing this problem. It doesn't make sense at all.
 
Depending on how your system works you could be looking at a possible corruption. Can you *import* your FE into a fresh, new db?
