I have the bat installed on a Lan where a server has a shared folder storing all data of the bat. Each the bat client use that folder. Now How can I update in the thebat client the path of that shared folder ? (If I need to move or to change the name of the folder I need to know how change the path in thebat) Thank tou very much! §-Boss-§

Having said that..: The Bat is not a multi-user application and you should not share the messagebase with multiple users, or use it from multiple locations at the same time.

Suppose that User A and User B are working on messages in the same folder. Then User A deletes a few messages. Or copies a few from another folder. Now, the indexes on User B's system are no longer correct. When User B then also deletes a few messages, The Bat may remove different messages than User B had intended. If I remember correctly, the first few Pro versions of The Bat offered multi-user support, but that was many years ago. I volunteer as a moderator to help keep the forum tidy.
