Re: Networking

and for the record, I usually implement DNS C Names in order to use
pointers for all my apps.
Then instead of changing the connection string (IN ONE PLACE) I just
change the DNS pointer.

now _THAT_ is an enterprise level idea!

Linking an ADP is no different than linking an MDB to SQL-Server or any
other RDBM for front-end changes. It isn't easier at all since if one moves
the server, because one needs to build a new DSN or rewrite the connection
strings, and one only needs to relink to the native JET DBMS.

yes, if you change a table, then you've got to relink it in 5
different places.

that is why it is considerably easier to move to SQL Server / ADP.

I have designed a data base which I wish to install on 5 remote computers.

My idea is to link the Backend (Tables). My question is if i change any
reports/mailing labels etc on the server data Base, do I then have to
change
the design on each of the remotes.

Is there any difference between splitting and linking, or is there a way
to
change any report designs that will automatically update on the remotes.

Many thanks for any help- Hide quoted text -
