Download
the trial version of Organizer Advantage from our website or use a CD ROM (if you
have purchased it) and install the software on your network drive
e.g. in F:\adv folder. Make sure every user on your
network has full Read/Write/Execute access permissions to that
folder and all subfolders.
Using
Windows Explorer locate Organizer Advantage main folder e.g. F:\adv.
Inside it, you should find db folder (e.g.
F:\adv\db). Move db folder
to your server local drive that is not shared such as drive C:.
For example, you could create a folder called adv_db
on drive C: and move db
folder from F:\adv
to C:\adv_db.
In your
Organizer Advantage main folder (e.g. F:\adv) locate a file called
datadir.tx$ and rename it to datadir.txt. Then,
double-click on datadir.txt and modify the path to db
folder according to step 2. For example, datadir.txt could
contain the following line:
\\myserver\c:\adv_db\db\
where "myserver" should be replaced by the name of your server.
After
modifying datadir.txt file save it and exit from Notepad.
