Hi there,
Thank you  Bryan for responding to my question regarding the
downloading of the BEU. 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,

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 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?

Thanks for your help
Myles :)
