Linking FE and BE dynamic
"Vsn" <vsn at hotmail> 16.07.2006 17:31:30
Hi all,

I do have a Access data base with is build up with a Front End and Back End.
Now I would like to choose which BE I use once i do start-up the FE. This
could be the BE on the network or when I travel the BE on my memory stick
which does not always get the same drive letter assigned? The ideal solution
would be that I do create a menu which starts up as first event when opening
the FE, where I than can choose to link to the BE at a known network
location or choose to browse for the unknown location.

Any help or suggestions will be highly appriciated.

Thx,
Ludovic
