text file reader error

Hi,
I have one front-end app and one back-end app. In the shared folder on the
server (where I store my back-end) I also have a text file named allac.txt.
In my front-end I have a macro that reads this textfile, the code looks like
this:

DoCmd.TransferText A_IMPORTFIXED, "allcont", "allcont1", strPath

The strPath is the path to the string allac.txt. When I copy my front-end to
the client computer the code doesnt work. I have changed the strPath to be:
"http://myServer/Shared/allac.txt".

What can be the problem?

Thanks,
Julia

Try \\server\share\file > \\myServer\Shared\allac.txt  as Path
