I have a simple access applicataion that was built with Access 2000 on a
Windows 2000 computer. I have buttons that link open up certain folders
when pressed.

When I put this application on a Windows XP computer with Access 2000, the
links do not work.

Any ideas why?

Thanks,
Jasper

Jasper,

do you get any messages when trying to open them or is it just not doing
anything?

Do the folders have the *exact* same path on both machines?

In other words, is it a Win2000 vs WinXp issue (which doesn't seem very
likely), or the fact that the links are hardcoded, or otherwise invalid, on
different machines.

HTH,
