Change All Links
When I'm working on updates to the front-end file, I'd like to change the
links of the tables to tables of the same structures and names, but residing in a "TestData" folder, a subfolder of the folder where the actual data resides. This way I can perform queries, make edits, etc. without changing the real data. Can anyone tell me how I can do this through code, rather than manually through the Linked Table Manager? Thank you.
