Question Single User.

[Carlo H. Francisco]

Basic Question,

Hello guys, I just want to know what codes where only one user can access that window? or database? at a time.

Is it using parameters?...

thanks, any reply is so much appreciated.

The Progress database provides single user access. That is you can connect to the database in single-user mode and exclusively occupy the database as long as your are on the same system where the database physically resides. But you need to be aware that this only works when the database is stopped.

For example:
prowin32 -db full_path_to_your_db -1

For there client there is a startup parameter -wss ( Windows single session) that ensures that only one prowin32.exe is running on the same machine. If have no experience with that so I can't tell you if there are any other negative side effects.
