If you are still having problems, let me know and I'll contact our webmaster and get him to have a look at what problems there may be. -- Bryan Carbonnell - carbonnb at sympatico.ca Unfortunately common sense isn't so common!

I have managed to download it now, thank you. I am now trying to implement it and am just having some trouble understanding how to do it. I have installed all the BEU objects into my front end. I can open the main form and can add new tables. But from then on I am not sure what to do.... My situation is that I have one front end database and then in a seperate client folder I have about 2000 client databases. All of these databases have the same table structure it is just that the data in the tables are different. I am hoping to be able to reach the situationHi there, Thank you Brian for responding to my question regarding the downloading of the BEU. I have managed to download it now, thank you. My situation is that I have one front end database and then in a seperate client folder I have about 2000 client databases. All of these databases have the same table structure it is just that the data in the tables are different. The way I operate at the moment is to import all the tables in one of my client databases, print some reports,remove this client and then import the next client I am hoping to be able to reach the objective where by, I can add a table, or add a new field to one of the imported client databases and then make these changes globally to all of my clients. Do you think it is possible to acheive this with the BEU? I think that it should be... But what I am not sure of is how I am now trying to implement it. I have installed all the BEU objects into my front end. I can open the main form and I think I can add new tables. But from then on I am not sure what to do.... I can see the tables and fields that I have created appear inside "tblDBAModifyDatabase" but what I am not sure of is how I can move these new tables into 1 or all of my Client BackEnds. A big question that I do have is : How is it possible for me to import the tables from one of my client databases so that they can be modified directly by the BEU and then allow these changes to be updated in all of my other clients?

In-Reply-To: <109408491201@studentmail.unitec.ac.nz> Message-ID: You say you import the tables into a single db. Could you simply relink to each db when needed? That way you could define changes in the BEU and everytime you relink to another BE, that BE will be updated with the structure changes. You will have to have a relinker (the Linked Table Manager will not work). You relink to the new BE, the BE version is checked and updated as needed. Does that make sense? I'm willing to help make it work if it would satisfy your needs.
