Hi Kerry,
I'm copying to the same folder in which the database resides.
BTW: It's a "split" database. The desktop icon opens the frontend database,
which then looks for the data in a separate database, which in this case
happens to be located in this same folder. When I first tried to open the
database on this new computer, I had to tell Vista to "trust" this folder
and the files/programs within that folder in order for the frontend database
to be able to access the data in the backend database. There was an option
in one of the Vista message boxes to go to the "Trust Center". Once I did
that, I could then specify this folder and its contents as "trusted". I
thought I could find this "Trust Center" and then point to the shared
network folder, but no luck.
