Symbolic links in Windows

I am using a huge data-base of images. This database gets duplicated every time I create a new test using the image data-base. So in Linux, I use Link file to a common database set.

Now, I am in Windows, Is there any way we can use the Linux link to files or some equivalent in Windows. Or using some relative file path is the only way out?

Are you looking for something like Reparse points? These are somewhat like a symbolic link on linux. If you need a way to view your linux partition, something like Ext2Ifs may be of interest to you.
