The network path is in the linked table properties. You have defined it when linking the table. From the front-end, open the linked table in design view and get the properties window. The path is displayed in the description, like DATABASE=I:\ifs\xxx_be.mdb;TABLE=Valuation

Open the front end file. Right click on any table in the database viewer. Pick "Linked Table Manager." Highlight the tables you want to relink. Make sure to check the "always ask" checkbox at the bottom of the window.
