Purpose of a Local Database
When View runs, it uses a partial copy of the Multi-Media database. The copy is stored on
the PC's hard drive. The local database can be updated (refreshed) if the PC running View
is connected to the Multi-Media database.
A local database is upgraded automatically when the user of View has an open
connection to the Multi-Media database. If the connection is not available (laptop PCs,
temporary setups and so on), use the information in this section to upgrade a local
database.
Mobile Users
You can upgrade View's local database without connecting to the Multi-Media database.
