Multiple MLS Terminals for one ward - Feature request

#1

Post by brado426 »

I wanted to start a new topic on this. I have been told it has been discussed before, but I haven't been able to find it by searching the forums.

Our ward could really benefit from a second MLS terminal, but as I understand it, it is currently impossible to share a single MLS database between multiple PCs via a local network. This enhancement would be greatly appreciated. :)

Yes it has, and the problem was that MLS locks the database to make it impossible for another MLS program to run.

Also since MLS wasn't designed for multiple simultaneous users I don't know if any mutual exclusion was built into the program for Database resources.
