Scenario

[George C Brackett]

One way to do this is to make your stack a standalone client  
application which you distribute to your co-workers. If the standalone  
connects to any of the standard databases -- MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.  
-- the database will handle the multiple connections for you so that  
nobody overwrites someone else's data.  To communicate with the  
database you might use Trevor Devore's new SQL Yoga library ($ from  
RevSelect) or his earlier free libDatabase (http://www.bluemangolearning.com/revolution/software/libraries/libdatabase/ 
).  The client application could also use the database connection to  
retrieve and display the current data.

Hi amigos, I would like to describe an scenario.  If you can, please  
outline how it can be resolved using Revolution:

I would like co-workers (initially in the LAN), fill a variety of  
forms, that later can be retrieved, searched, printed etc.  I believe  
that connecting Revolution with a database manager using ODBC is the  
way to go, but how stack will be opened in the LAN simultaneously by  
more than one user?.  In one machine I may have to put the stack  
connected to the database manager, and in each of the clients machine  
a stack connected to the RR stack in the server? or maybe each client  
should connect to the DB?.  Scale this to reach the data thru Internet  
would be fabulous but for now working in the LAN would be sufficient.

Hope all this make sense and you can give me a clue, you may have  
noticed that I´m really lost with this.

Saludos,
