hey all, i have a project that is like a server and a terminal interface. the server is the one that can only make changes in the database and the terminal is more of storing what is in the database. here is the problem, i have stored a PDF file path in the database through the use of the server, but the problem is that i cant seem to display it on the terminal. i was thinking that the terminal was assuming that the file path was stored in its local hard drive. can u please help on how will i specify that the file path is on the local hard disk of the server and not on its local hard disk?

anyone?

have you tried storing the path as UNC?

i.e. instead of C:\MYFOLDER try \\machinename\drive\MYFOLDER
