Tiemo,

It depends on how the Database is handled. You will have to either test it out, or read the documentation for the database type you are working with.

The other solutions presented are definitely the best way to go. Create your "default" database and burn it to CD. When the program on the CD is launched, copy it to the user's hard drive and start using that copy to work with.

Like I said though, it depends entire upon the type of database you are working with. I don't use SQL as I find it to be rather bulky. I use Flat Files, and I write all of my own database handlers, so my coding is not dependent on SQL or some other type of database and it's limitations.

The advantage and disadvantage of programming is that sometimes you have to re-invent the wheel. That's just how it goes.

Hi Derek,
When you open a file or program, it is placed into memory.  From there,
you can fill variables, fields, properties, etc.  You just can't save
those changes back to the file on the CD.

yes, but isn't this the same with a database, as long, as I don't want to
save the changes? Or is a database an exception with this handling and is
only the current sql set in memory - probably!?

Thanks
Tiemo
