Data Sharing


Network users can share items over the LAN network. Shared shortcut items are saved in a special file that has to be located on a network drive (directory) all user can access. Each user wanting to use shared items has to enable "Allow shared items" option and specify the path to the shared items file in the main settings window.

Shared Items File Editing

To create a shared items file, create a new file selecting "File/New" menu item. Name the new file so that the name is different than other files users use (for example, "SharedItemsFile"). Edit the file (create folders and shortcut items) and save it on shared network drive on the network. When the shared shortcut items file is created all the users will see "Shared Items" folder in their folder view.

Note the shared items can be edited only when shared items file is directly opened in the program using "File / Open".  This means that if a user (administrator) wants to make changes to shared items he/she has to open shared items file by selecting the file in file open dialog ("File/Open").
