moving database from one drive to another

#1 November 14th, 2005, 10:34 PM

We have put all our shared info at work on a new drive. I have to change the
databases to access the new drive. Is there an easy way to do this, or am I
having to go to each front end and change the paths. Also, how do I change
the pathes from f:/share to //myserver/share. Do i also have to do this on
each front end? (over 100 users)

Do it once, and give everyone a copy of the new front end.
