   1. Create two different directories 

   2. In each directory make sure you have a copy of the RBase.INI and
RBase.CFG files. You can also add the RBase.DAT file to change to the
directory where you DB and Application files are.

   3. Put two ICons on your desktop. The only different between the two will
be the start in directory.

Subject: Multi user question about RBW6.5++



Hi all,

I am trying to use 2 copies of my RBW6.5++ app sharing the same DB on the
same PC for testing purposes.
Each copy must have a different user name.
So, each copy must 'see' its own RBASE.CFG file.
My problem is that I can't find the proper way to do that because the path
of RBASE.CFG file is stored in RBASE.INI and each copy uses the same
RBASE.INI file.

Is there somewhere a clear paper about this topic ?


On drive D I have :
\RBW65 contains RBW6.5 files (including RBASE.INI and RBASE.CFG)
\RBW65\app contains my app with RBASE.DAT startup file :

SET SCRATCH 'D:\rbw65\temp'
....
RUN init IN init.apx

I run copy 1 thru shortcut 1 :
target D:\RBW65\RBG65.EXE -R ....
start in : D:\RBW65\app

D:\RBW65\RBASE.CFG contains :
...
NAME RBWUSER1


On drive E :
\RBW65 contains RBW6.5 files (including RBASE.INI and RBASE.CFG)
\RBW65\app contains only RBASE.DAT startup file :

SET SCRATCH 'E:\rbw65\temp'
....
CHDRV D:
CD \rbw65\imp
RUN init IN init.apx

I run copy 2 thru shortcut 2 :
target E:\RBW65\RBG65.EXE -R ....
start in : E:\RBW65\app

E:\RBW65\RBASE.CFG contains :
...
NAME RBWUSER2


Problem is that in both copies SHOW NAME show RBWUSER1

Help will be appreciated ....

TIA
