I have a question that I've been scratching my head over and
haven't had a chance to try it. With the ability of the Extreme
9.0 compiler to include all forms and reports and application
extras including external forms, it seems to me that it would
be possible to connect to a a database anywhere in the world
and retrieve and manipulate the data with the exe located
elsewhere.
My question is, what would the CONNECT look like?
CONNECT XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX\databasefolder\dbname
Just wondering.
Jan,
CONNecting to a database anywhere in the world?
Yes, you CAN!
In this scenario, you will have to use "Custom Designed R:BASE
Client", similar to the bullet-proof R:DCC Client bundled with
R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 (32/64). Imagine the swift communication
between all users of R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 around the world with
R:BASE Dream Team.
2010 Annual R:BASE Conference (October 9-10) includes a session
to demonstrate the use of such technology and more ...

Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
