Hello,

I have A 2003 access database that is sitting in our company shared
drive and for some reason one of the user is having problem running
queries or opening any tables. It gives an error message of
"..........xls is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is
spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which
the file resides". The funny thing is that no one else have any
issues opening or running the queries except for this new person. The
person could go into the shared folder and open the database but can't
run the database.

Any reason?

thanks!

I figured it out. I just needed to refresh the links from the
database.
