Default cannot find database

I have an excel spreadsheet that is supposed to update a access db.
Whenever I try to save the .xls I get an error stating cannot find db.
Even when I open the db with access, I get the error and the db opens
anyway?????? This only happens on 2 out of 20 pc's and I cannot figure
out why????????
Thanks

What is the exact error message?
How is the database being updated - if by a macro, can you show us the
relevant code?
What version of Excel / Access?
On the machines on which the problem occurs can you create a new query
in a different workbook from the same database?
