For the last couple weeks when I try to load a Access File I get an error
message

"Windows cannot find "Drive\Filename Make sure you typed the name correctly
& try again"

The error message pops up and the file will open what's going on? This is
annoying

Thanks terry

Yes it's extremely annoying. I get it too, with Access 2003, on
network drives, if the database is in Access 97 format. I don't get
the error if I open the .mdb from Access 97, and I don't see the
error in Access 2003 if the file is in Access 2003 format.

What version of Access are you using, and is the ,mdb on a local or a
shared drive?

It's been happening to me for about 5 or 6 months.
I've learned to ignore it, but I'd like to resolve it.

Hi Bob my Access Version is 2002 & it's on a local drive.
This seems to have started after downloading a MS security patch? but I'm
not sure

My impression was a patch as well, but which?

I could not find anything in the knowledgebase or the groups.
