Multi Database
2. After installing the upgrade to View, move every [user].mdb file (that you located in step 1) to the
latest installation folder.
3. Start View. As each user logs on for the first time to the upgraded View, a dialog box appears
stating that the local database needs an upgrade.
4. Click Yes. The [user].mdb file is upgraded, after being backed up to [user].bak.
Tip
On PCs used by many accounts, there is a [user].mdb file for each account.

Producing a Local Database

Obtaining a local database, not connected to Multi db
Your Multi SA can deliberately make it impossible for operators to connect to a Multi db when
using MinAdmin. Your Multi SA may then elect to provide View Operators with a computer file of
the local database. The next procedure indicates how to make a local database from a command
line.
Tip
Before using a command line to create a local multi database, please run Admin once
before doing so. If not, an error results.

To Make a Local Database

1. Check if View has run on the PC you are using; if you are unsure, run View and exit.
2. Using Windows, run a command line utility and type: remadmin.exe "[name of user account]". The
double-quotes are needed only for spaces or non-alpha-numeric characters, such as an
apostrophe. This produces a [name of user account].mdb file.
3. Distribute the *.mdb file to the View Operator. The user needs to copy the file to the folder holding
the View.exe file. See the examples, below.
Examples
acceptable
d:> remadmin.exe "O'Donnell #4"
d:> remadmin.exe ODonnell4
error
d:> remadmin.exe O'Donnell #4

Logging On

For routine use of Admin
After specifying a database, Admin and View will continue to use it, each time that you log on.
Logging on to Admin is a simple matter of starting Admin (as explained in
p. 238) and clicking OK.
