If the links exist already, you can change table links by using the tabledefs collection:

thisdb.TableDefs(0).Connect = "FoxPro 2.6;DATABASE=" & strNewConn
thisdb.TableDefs(0).RefreshLink
thisdb.TableDefs.Refresh

Where thisdb refers to the opened MDB database and strNewConn has the path to the new source.
