Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Visual Translator

> ## Opening a kit in multi-user mode

> To work in multi-user mode, you must start a database server for the kit database. It is easiest if the kit database is created on a system and not moved, but it is possible to relocate the kit by zipping it up, moving the zip file, and unzipping it.

> See the OpenEdge Data Management: Database Administration for information on starting up a database server. Use the Progress Explorer or issue the proserve command from a DOS prompt. Typically, no startup parameters are necessary except for the database name, -S (service), and -H (host), and these three are mandatory.

> | To connect to the kit database in multi-user mode:

> 1. Start Visual Translator and choose File Open Multi-User. The Open Multi-User Kit Database dialog box appears:

> 2. Select the name of the kit database that has a server running. Use the Browse button to find the database.

> 3. In the Host Name box enter the name of the computer hosting the database.

> 4. In the Service Name box enter the port of the database server.

> 5. Enter the translator’s User ID if the kit is password protected.

> 6. Enter the translator’s Password if the kit is password protected.

> 7. Enter Other CONNECT Statement Parameters as necessary and choose OK.

> When you have filled in the appropriate values, proceed as if in single-user mode.
