| Can I have one database for more than one app? eg. I would like to have WebWiz (WW) forum db, WW poll db and WW news db in one database file (only one is allowed on my server). Can I do that? If yes, how? |

I take it your are talking about the access version for all of them, you would either have to manually merge common tables for apps that don't allow a custom prefix or you would have to rename the tables for each app and then do a search/replace in each app. What kinda cheapo host only allows 1 db anyway, even free brinkster allows more. ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

NOt 100% sure ... but on our hosting servers I certainly at a "gut level" dont know how... especially if the are DNS less connections. Other than actually searching for .mdb files (which can easily be bypassed by renaming the file extension) ....? ------------- Cheers TheKiwi http://www.infobahn.co.nz - Internet Infobahn - website design and hosting |

If the hosting company does not allow dsn less connection and only gives you one dsn they could limit it... ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |
