On a FE/BE Access 2007 database the IT team asked me not to use a mapped
drive letter but the server name and path (UNC) when linking tables. I
changed the link to point to location \\server2\data and copied the FE to
three computers. They logged off, went home and came back today and the
database doesn't work, error 2467 which turned out to be that it couldn't
find the tables. I looked at the linked table manager and instead of the
UNC they show Z: as the drive location.
What happened?
