Yes, you have to maintain the location with the linked table manager, or you
can roll your own code. I actually have a one record table in the front end
that has 4 fields

ProductionDir (string field - full path to back end - clients pc)
ProductionReLink (true/false field)

DevelopmentDir (string field - full path to back end - my pc)
DevelopmentReLink (true/false field) ...
