Default Can't Remotely Open DB w/Linked Tables


Folks, I have two databases that contain tables linked to
a common third database. When bossman tries to open them
from home, one opens after about 3 minutes. The other
times out and a window pops up saying "Program Not
Reponding".

The second dababase described above is the larger of the
two and the database containing the source tables is the
largest.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance and may your weekend be
happy and safe.

Hi DD,

If he's trying to use linked tables over the internet he's on a hiding
to nothing. See http://www.attcanada.net/~kallal.msn/Wan/Wans.html for
why.
