Rétablir les liens de différentes sources de données.

en établissant de liens à diverses bases de données d'arrière-plan.

Il existe divers cas où plusieurs types différents de bases de données sont liés à une base de donnée Access en avant-plan, bases de données hétérogènes tel que ODBC, Excel, FoxPro, etc. Voici une procédure généralisée qui permet de rétablir le lien à toutes sources, indépendamment de leur type.

Vous pouvez utiliser cette procédure pendant que votre base de données est ouverte. Par exemple, ici, lors de l'exécution de la procédure événementielle de fermeture du formulaire de confirmation de démarrage (Splash form).

Private Sub Form_Close()
    If fRefreshLinks = False Then
        MsgBox "You have not refreshed the database links. This application " _
		& "will can not function and will be terminated."
        DoCmd.Quit
    End If
End Sub

This code goes in a new module.
