I know nothing about Access, but have an issue a church with an .mdb file someone previously created.
A Excel file( .xls ) is created by another program and that file's absolute location is embedded in an .mdb file. The data from the Excel file is used to generate attendance sheets using the .mdb file and a "trial" version of Access. The software that creates the Excel file was upgraded and the new software is in a different location that previously. The report that creates the Excel file works in the new location, but the location where the file is saved is under the new software's directory.
I would like to modify the location of the Excel file that is in the .mdb file to point to the new location.
How do I do this?
It appears that the computer this .mdb file is on only has a "trial" version of Access. However, I can use Access on another machine to modify the file location in the .mdb file if necessary. BTW this is running on Windows XP. Other machine with Access is running Windows 7.
