Typically, a System Administrator will install the application and its database to a network. Workstation installations will then provide each user access to the application and database.
If you expect to have a large database, or have many operators entering data quite frequently, you might consider storing your database on a SQL Server. In this case, an Administrator can quickly convert the database to an SQL Server database. More information on converting from Access to SQL Server is available in the Help System. You can even use a combination of both database types in your operations.
In some cases, you may decide to set up multiple databases, perhaps one for each department. This is easily handled during installation, but remember that data (such as User names or Gages) will have to be entered separately into the different databases. You can easily switch to a different database using the Open …Database options in the File menu. The last database opened by a specific user is opened by default when that user next logs on.
