If you are using PhonePad in Local Mode<\/strong> (the default connection method) on a peer-to-peer network then you will need to create a network share for the PhonePad data folder on the Host computer.<\/p>\n

In this example, PhonePad has been installed on the G:<\/strong> drive.\u00c2\u00a0 The PhonePad data folder is G:\\PhonePad\\Data<\/strong>.\u00c2\u00a0 This has been made a shared folder by the CreateShare<\/strong> utility, and the share has been given the name PhonePadData<\/strong> (this is the default share name).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Share Path<\/strong> in this example is \\\\MARS\\PhonePadData<\/strong> (Mars is the name of the Host computer – yours, more than likely, has a different name).<\/p>\n

This <\/strong> is what needs to be entered under the Local Database Directory<\/strong> setting in DBConnect <\/strong>on the other computers.<\/p>\n

<\/a>\"\"<\/a>So the steps are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create the network share on the Host computer using the CreateShare <\/strong>utility.<\/li>\n
  2. Make a note of the Share Path<\/strong>, eg. \\\\Mars\\PhonePadData.<\/li>\n
  3. Run DBConnect <\/strong>on the other computers and enter the Share Path<\/strong> in the Local Database Directory<\/strong> field, then click OK<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    That’s it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
