Hello, I am using the Transfer Text macro (for the first time) and I receive
an error message that access cannot find the file. I'm sure it's that I do
not have the path written correctly. I wrote it as I would for any other
application: \\location\filename

Can some one please tell me what the correct format is? The Access F1
function was of no help to me this time.

Thanks so much!!

The UNC path name is fine.

Don't forget to include the extension (e.g. .txt or .csv.)
