Problem changing related table

Hello,__Is there any reason why there should be a problem changing a related table to a file with the path in UNC syntax such as:__rptTrip->RelatedTables[1] = "TRIPREP=\\DISPATCH\TRP\TRIPREP.DBF";__If we map the shared directory to a network drive and change the table as in__rptTrip->RelatedTables[1] = "Z:\TRIPREP.DBF";__it always works.__When it fails the error message is always "Cannot open database table (table may be in use): X.DBF" where X is the first letter of the alias name (in the example above it would be T.DBF). We are using R&R 8.____Thanks

R&R does not always like UNC pathing.____Kathleen__R&R Support

Normally with that error, you have to answer OK and then point R&R to the proper location of the data. Then when you save the report with the correct data location, it should open after that without an error.
