RE: [MS_AccessPros] Locating wrong paths for linked tables.

 

Thanks, Liz! I had already seen Duane's code and tried it before I saw your post. I'll give it a whirl next time!

If you create a new db and import the tables by selecting all in to the new db – just as a test you'll get notification on all your bad links.

I'm using Access 2010 and have a number of linked tables (mostly Excel files but at least one Access file). I've made some changes in directory structure, and that broke the links to several of the linked tables. I can visually spot a bad one by hovering the mouse cursor over a table's icon in the sidebar, which pops up the path, but I'm wondering if there's a better way to identify which ones have broken links since there's no error given when I run the a query that involves the linked table. 

I've been fixing the broken links (with the linked table manager) as I find them but would appreciate suggestions for a more efficient way to handle that as well.

Hopefully this is clear.

Thanks for any pointers.
