Database should be 'shared' through a Firebird server instance. Users connect to the database through the Firebird server. What you seem to be doing right now is probably using Firebird Embedded (or locally hosted Firebird server instances) to access database through a shared directory. You should not perform concurrent access to a database through a shared directory, as it is a great way to corrupt things. > When we open a database with the app, there's a message that says: > > “COMPUTER XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX :XXXXX” > > “THE SIMULTANEOUS EDITING OF ONE DATABASE BY MULTIPLE USERS MAY > RESULT IN DATABASE ERROR MESSAGES, BUT WON’T CAUSE LOSS OF DATA. > CONTINUE?” > > We can click past the message and still get into the data. > > The IP address in the first line is the IP address of the computer > accessing the database. > > I'm assuming this message is coming from the Firebird server. > > The server is a Windows 10 pc, as is the client.

It is not a message from Firebird, so it is probably logic that is part of your software. Mark
