So, I think it is set in the program .usr >files What is set in Options/Customise/Location is the "default" location. If you select a picture from a directory other than the default location, its path gets stored in tblBP. (Sherry can correct me if I'm wrong.) If all you use is the default location for pictures, sounds, and videos, then you probably will not encounter any problems. You can click "View Current List of Multimedia Locations" to see if you are using additional locations. (I think this just displays the contents of tblBP.) Regardless, we've gone off on a slight tangent as the OP is trying to set up "offline folders", which is a little different than simply sharing a single Legacy database on a networked computer (see Windows XP Help on "offline folders"). It sounds like the offline computer actually gets its own copy of the file/folder, which then has to be "synchronized" when the offline computer rejoins the network. (Sounds a little messy and potentially dangerous to me.) -- Dennis M.
