Database supplemental files
Database supplemental files:
- Are specific
to a database and accessible by users of that database while it is open.
- Are the first
files to be accessed and used. For example, when creating a letter, the
default template that displays is from the database supplemental files.
- Can be copied
or saved to personal files. (When you copy a database, all files associated
with the database are copied.)
- Can be
created or edited by users given the appropriate permissions.
- Can be synchronized.
- Can be backed
up.
- Cannot be moved
to another file location on your computer or server.
- Cannot be deleted. However, when you delete a database, all files stored in the database
are deleted. If you uninstall and then reinstall Act!,
the default set of database supplemental files are overwritten.
Database supplemental files include:
- Layouts, and
report and word-processing templates.
- E-mail messages
and attachments to messages (such as letters) that are attached to contact
records.
Note: In a workgroup environment, if you have more than one server, the database
and database supplemental files cannot reside on different servers.
