Hi Simon, Sorry for the late reply and thank you so much for this suggestion which I’ve tried and the sequence executes successfully updating one of the folder paths. Unfortunately due to the tangled mess my daughter got into in creating the video in the first place she ended up with 17 different folder paths all pointing to different directories. My aim (since August!) has been trying to redirect all of these folders to a single path (‘E\Photos’) where all photos and videos are now stored.
Since testing your suggestion I’ve been reading the SQL syntax and examples to try to work out how to modify or extend your sequence below to change the remaining 16 Folder Paths however when I try to change each one in turn I receive the following error: UNIQUE constraint failed: Folder.Folder_Path: UPDATE folder SET Folder_Path = 'E:\Photos' WHERE Folder_Path = 'C:\Users\carlo\Pictures' AND folder_Id = 1 Kind regards, Carlo.

My guess is that you actually want UPDATE folder SET Folder_Path = 'E:\Photos' WHERE Folder_Path = 'C:\Users\carlo\Pictures' AND folder_Id = 1 Please take a backup copy of your database file before trying this.
