This is the setup for the file areas in which users can up and download files.
|
|
|
|
This database has fixed area numbers, the database can't be packed. This is
|
|
|
|
done because areas can point to other areas and users are "used" to use
|
|
|
|
areas by number. Also the .tic areas reference the file areas by record
|
|
|
|
numbers. Extending the database is allways possible. One important note,
|
|
|
|
before you can set this up, you need to define the <A HREF="newgroups.html">
|
|
|
|
newfiles groups</A>.
