Hi,
I am writing a database which will be on more than one computer. I want to be able to import/export any modifications that the user has made to/from a floppy disk/ flash drive or a file on the hard drive. I want this done from two buttons on the switchboard (an import and an export button). I want it so that when the user clicks on one of the buttons, the user can choose where to open/save the file (e.g. which drive). I reckon that if the table data was transfered, then this should probably do it. The database will contain sensitive information, so I would rather that the information was stored on something other than some server. I reckon that it something to do with the transferdatabase command in VB, i have tried playing with it but have been unable to make it work. Please help!
I am a novice and regret ever voluntaring to do this for work, it has taken me ages to get where I am, and I think if I get this sorted I will be finished.
Thanks
