    Are any of the other drives you get the error on mapped network drives ?

    In addition, when you get the error, have you verified "filename.mdb" exist at App.path + "\filename.mdb" ?

    Worst case scenario add the following line to your code, recompile and validate the path your application is expecting your mdb file to be in:
    VB Code:
    1. Call MsgBox(App.Path & "\filename.mdb")

    This way you know for sure what the path is and then can verify the file exists at that location.

    Edit
    Thanks Akhilesh
    I fixed it in my copy/paste as well as it is correct for string concatonation to use & instead of +.

    An additional note:

    I think, for concatenation, & symbol is better then + symbol...
