DBA Help

Client workstations access the Training Company through your local local area network.  A DBA Manufacturing Client gets installed on each client workstation to provide start menu access, desktop icons, and a database engine.  

WARNING: Do not use wireless connections

Do not use wireless connections because client workstation will experience disconnections, access violation errors, and potential data corruption.  

NOTE: If you wish to furnish a PC with a wireless connection, it must be set up as a remote desktop workstation (see System Requirements).

Client installation is only required on a one-time basis

Even though the the Training Company will be removed and re-installed with each new product build, client installation does not get removed and remains in place so that workstations have access to all subsequent installations.
