To adapt an existing installation on a local machine to a server location you will need to move a couple files and then reconfigure the “Directory” listing referenced in the Company Setup screen within RealTime.

1. Create a folder on your network server to be the "Data Root Directory" and be sure it's accessible to the RealTime users (the users should have FULL RIGHTS)
2. Copy your Company3.MDB and RealTime.LIC files from the original “Data Root Directory” on the local machine to the newly created “Data Root Directory” share on the network server.
3. Copy your “Data Folder” to your newly created “Data Root Directory” share, by locating and right-clicking the “Data Folder” in it’s current location and selecting [Copy] … then go to the newly created “Data Root Directory” share on the network server and right-clicking within the folder and complete the move by selecting [Paste].  (Hint: The “Data Folder” is referenced within the Company Setup window as "Terminal/Clock Name."  The “Data Folder” is where several important files are stored so it’s imperative to get the entire folder).
   Example:
                           Existing Folder:           C:\RT3\SUNDIAL1
                           New Location:             file://SERVER/DATAROOT/SUN_DIAL
4. Start RealTime
5. At the Navigation window select [Setup] and then [Options] to open the Options window.  Here you will want to change the current “Data Root Directory” to reflect your newly created “Data Root Directory” on the network server.
   Example:
                     Local “Data Root Directory” example             = C:\RT3
                     Network “Data Root Directory example          = file://SERVER/DATAROOT
6. Exit and re-open RealTime
7. At the Navigation window select [General] and then [Company] to open the Company Setup window
8. Modify the Company Setup "Directory" field to match the new location (in the example used here this would be: file://SERVER/DATAROOT/SUN_DIAL)
9. Click the [Select] button
10. Test by exiting the program and renaming your original “Data folder” and restarting RealTime.  You should still have all your Employees and Data available.
