Many thanks to everyone who made suggestions last night.
The same client for whom I built the application also uses an electronic medical record (EMR) which is a Visual Basic application writing to a MS Access database file. In that case, 3 instances of the application (on separate computers, of course) write to a single database file via a peer-to-peer network. The database can reside on any of the "peers".


If I were to substantially rewrite the Rev application so that it would write to a (non-stack) database file in the manner of the VB app above, what might be a good choice? No more than 3 simultaneous users; peer-to-peer network (no server); low traffic network activity.

If someone could point me to the appropriate section(s) of the Revolution docs, I could Read The Manual first. I have read the entry "How to...allow multiple users to access a stack on a server", which seems to be a recipe for avoiding the stack collision mentioned earlier. Do I need to study the SQL section (about which subject I currently know nothing)? Would it be practical to write to a text file as a database? I visualize the data as being <1000 rows, and < 10 columns.

Thanks, Kurt
