Setting a Multi Database for View

TIP!
276
The First Time That You Use View
The View operator needs to set View to use a Multi central database (Multi db).
For mobile PCs that will not have access to the Multi db, have the multi SA connect
the PC to the Multi db at least once, and have that user log on.
When a different Multi db is used at View's logon, the local db is overwritten with
contents from the most recent Multi db.
1. Launch View.
2. Set the database. Either:
• The PC can only run View. Select the database engine and browse for or enter
the name of the database file. For SQL Server or MSDE databases, indicate the
server and database.
- or -
• The PC can run Admin or View. View's Logon window automatically displays the
database selected to run Admin.
3. Leave a checkmark in the checkbox next to The Central database is accessible
from this PC. You should uncheck this box after one successful logon only if a PC is
stand-alone or mobile. Leave or enter your user account name in the User ID field.
4. Enter your password in the Password field.
5. Click OK.
For Routine Use of View
Unless another Multi db is set, View continues to use the same Multi db every time someone
logs on.
For PCs running Admin and View, View's Logon window automatically displays the
database selected using Admin.
The User ID and Password are authenticated once in the Multi db. Afterwards, the
local database is used.
Local Multi Database
The local db contains a subset of the Central db data, including information for sites that
the user is authorized to use.
