Title: how to make softwares work on more that 1 system.
Post by: scomp on May 18, 2008, 03:04:58 AM

hi everyone,

 I have a problem. I have created a software with database which stores information about each incoming and outgoing person from office.

But, I want it to work on many systems in the office.

e.g  The name can be entered on ground floor or first floor or second floor.

and the information can be accessed from anywhere ,from any system in the office.

Can anyone tell how to make a software networking capable. so that data can be save or accessed from anywhere in the office.

how to do this.

thank in advance

one solution I've employed myself is to have the database app and files located on a network share. This works well with Access(JET) databases, with proper error handling. If your application is handling it's own database file, you'll need to find a way to handle concurrent accesses.
