How to link a split _be?

[WDSnews]

I have two questions...

My main concern is being able to temporarily open a backup of the database
in a temporary folder so that the forms link to the backup of the back-end
tables rather than the live tables. I'm hoping I can simply copy the split
back-end and front-end files to the temporary folder and open the front-end.

My second question is, what's an efficient way to link back-end tables in
the front-end? Up to now I've been manually linking new Access tables as I
build them. But I wonder if there's another way? In this case I've placed
the back-end file in a different folder from the various front-end files.

You don't mention your version, but in many (most) of them it's:
