Default 8.5- Logging into multiple files with the same Password - 12-12-2006 , 04:14 PM






I've set up a file system wherein there are about 10 seperate databases
which are loaded upon opening of the main file. Each database requires
the same username and password. I know there is a way so that as long
as the password is provided for the first file, you won't have to keep
typing it in again and again. I've checked around the permissions,
however, and can't figure out what I need to change. I don't want my
users having to waste time and grow frustrated repeating a password
again and again.

As long as the password is EXACTLY the same then they shouldn't need to
re-enter it, as long as they don't go back to the desktop and
double-click a second file or select multiple files on the desktop
before opening them.

The best approah is usually to have a "main file" that they always
double-click on to open the system. This can then open the other files
via scripts / relationships - either as needed or using a Opening
Script that simply opens them all up at once.
