Hello Natel,

 

The once that he mentioned is not applicable as those data in the source file settings are no longer connected in the queries. What I want is to just get rid with that first two folders. Take them out in the queries:

 

Thanks

Anonymous , I have verified that I'm not able to delete a reference to a folder either. I think you could modify it to some non-existing path, if you want to protect the folder. I don't know what else to do.

    It's okay Natel. Maybe it's not yet in their features. Thanks for all your suggestions. I appreciate all of those.
