Good evening from Wisconsin,
I have been using ACT! since version 2000, then jumped to 2007 several years ago, on my primary business machine running Windows XP Pro w/SP3. Now my office manager needs access to the same database to schedule appointments, add/modify contacts, etc.
In response to a mailer we received from Sage, I called up and talked to one of the sales reps about getting two licenses for ACT 2009 with the explicit understanding that the main database would be moving on to a file server and needs to be accessed by both of us.
So I installed ACT on her machine today, copied the database over to the file server, and attempted to access the database from the file server. ACT tells me that the database needs to be locally installed.
How do I configure the database so that we can both access it, before I move it to the file server?
Thank you in advance,
