Hi Dimitri, i use a odbc connection to connect to the database.
on every pc I have configured a odbc connection with the same name and configured the database path by specifying the IP address of the server as I said before, if I do the db connection test from every single pc, everything works. I repeat the steps to replicate the problem: i create a db access 2007 and i put it in a shared folder (every pc have a mapped network drive (Z) to access this database 1) from pc 1, i open the db and link some tables using a odbc connection. if i open (in access 2007) the linked table, i read the data 2) from pc 2, i open the db shared and i view the linked tables. if i open (in access 2007) the linked table, i have an odbc error "connection failed". 3) from pc 2, i remove the linked tables. using a odbc connection, i re-link the tables and now (on pc 2) i read the data! 4) at the moment, on pc 1 i can not read it anymore data from the linked tables in conclusion, I can read the tables data only on the pc that I use to link the tables
