Otto,
I'm don't understand that link. Maybe it is incorrect.
As for what I suggested, I have been using a client / server methodology for nearly 40 years. My customers run from 2 - 20 computers on a network, all sharing the same set of data files. Some use a true server with Windows Server software. Others simply designate one of their normal workstations, running Windows 10 or 11, as a server. They run the client software on the same computer, but all of their other workstations also interact with the data on that same machine. We NEVER have any problems, and these folks are entering a lot of data all day long.
I know you do things differently, but I've been networking and sharing data since the earliest days of DOS, using dBase II, and III, then Clipper, and since 2000, full Windows. The computers today are so fast and efficient that it works beautifully.
