    I am working on my first dbkit program and have decided that I want to
use multiple documents.  In other words, I will have different windows
displaying information from different records from the same database.  What I
am trying to do is to make the document a separate nib file and then do a
"loadNibFile" each time that I need a new document which will be loaded with
data from a sybase database. I will have a DBModule in the nib file with
connections to the document.  The question I have is:

    If I have a DBModule in the document nib, will I get a new
instantiation of DBModule each time I perform a "loadNibFile" method (I suspect
so)?  If so, does this mean that I also get another connection to our sybase
server and quickly use up the 8 user licsense?

    Is there another way I could handle multiple documents?

Thanks,
