Can the database product Base be operated over a network with multiple
users accessing it simultaneously? How do the other databases come in
to play (MySQL, Access, etc...) What requirements does Base have (i.e.
network OS, we mostly run Netware, hardware & software). What kind of
security and access controls are there?
Thanks,

Base is a client application, so multiple users will not access it at
the same time. On the other hand, if you happen to have a MySQL
database, then MySQL server must be running for Base to access the data
(Base does not natively access MySQL, it uses either ODBC, or JDBC). So,
MySQL server must be running, and you can have multiple users accessing
the database at the same time.
The other database systems host their data, as they always would. Base
can not natively read an Access database, but you can access it using
ADO on a windows machine. It can, however, natively access Calc, XLS,
and dBase files...
I hope that this helps somewhat.
