Hello.. I'll be working on a multi-user database soon (probably FoxBase 2.0 - Multi-User) on Macs and I was curious as to how data file integrity was taken care of. I want to be able to modify a database, but I don't want any of the datafiles to be accessable from the Finder (with appleshare). Worse case scenerio is that the files are visible (encrypted though), but no write access is given (I don't want the files to be thrown out). But I don't see how the application could modify the files then. If anybody has any experience or ideas, I would be very appreciative. Thanks. Dave. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dave Pinkus | ARPAnet: dp22+@andrew.cmu.edu :) | Carnegie Mellon U. | BITNET: q109dp22@CMCCVB | Pittsburgh, PA | UUCP: ...!harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!dp22 | - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = -
