Can I get Access (2k) to move 'down' a directory to where some of my files are,
then go 'back up', so it can go back 'down' into the next? If so, how?

Thanks in advance,

Tom

In what context? You can use the ChDir statement to change the Windows
"current directory", but it has little practical application in a code
context, since every function and statement I can think of that involves
files also includes the ability to specify the complete folder path.

You are correct. I found this out only *after* I sent my original
email. But I do thank you for answering.
