I have a form where the user inputs information and it is linked to a
main table. Now what I want to do is put this form in separate folders
on a drive that everyone can see so users go into the drive and fill
out the form. Ultimately the form will be put in many separate
folders. My problem is linking the forms to the main table. Is there
any way that I can link all of the forms that I put in the separate
folders to one main database table and do it easily?
 
This is not the ideal way to do this. You need to install a server based
system. This way you won't end up with loads of forms on loads of drives
(what if someone changes one of the forms or what if someone is updateing a
record at the same time as another user, etc, etc,etc).
There are many servers capable of running and front end access system you
need to speak to your IT people and then speak to who ever has the company
money. It will cost a bit for the hardward but not as much as you could lose
by doing it in your way.

I Know this isn't what you want to hear but I do spend a lot of time trying
to get my clients to invest in the right hardware on which to place and run
the software.
