[Papyrus-L] Using Papyrus in a Windows 2000 network

[John R.Rodgers]

Perhaps this is technologically cowardly, but it seems to me to be good 
stewardship of a valuable community resource.



>We took the coward's way out - we also use one database for a research

>ask everyone to download and update the personal copy on their own machine 
>before starting work.  Only one workstation modifies the data base; they 
>then create backup files and place the most recent version on the shared 
>folder on the server.  Anyone wanting to modify the database sends the 
>information to the Papyrus custodian. That way, no problems with multiple 
>accesses, but everyone has the updated database.
>This is relatively low tech, but it has the advantage of working.
