I recently installed our filemaker databases on a server instead of a single computer, so the image path no longer works. I am not sure if there is a way to change the image path, or how to even tell what the image path is. Is there an easy way to do this?

When you insert an image as a reference, FM stores the path to the image in the container. If you create a calc field, ImagePath_c = GetasText(myContainer), you'll see two lines and the last is the path to the referenced image.

Since you have changed the path, you need to update the path. First, you need to figure out what the path should be. Insert a new image as a reference now that you have a new setup. The images should be stored on a shared volume, so that every client can access them. When you insert the image, you'll be able to see the path that's required in the ImagePath_c calc field.

Now you need to update the existing container's paths, so that they have the correct new path to the shared volume. You can create a calc field, result container or use the Replace command on your existing container. Just be careful that you keep the filename data, as that is probably all that distinguishes each record's info.
