I am brand new to TNT.  My wife and I are just starting out as missionaries.  We both have Mac computers.  If I download TNT on both our MacBooks can we share a database?  Can I put TNT on a external hard drive?  To transfer all our donor contacts will be a big job and I don't want everything on one computer and it crash on me.  Help please

I'd recommend using Dropbox to share your database between computers:  www.tntware.com/.../how-can-tntmpd-3-0-help-me-use-dropbox-better.aspx

Troy,

I use a PC. How do you share a TNTMPD database with 2 people and save all the changes? What are the commands on TNTMPD? How is this done without using two databases on two PCs?

Hi RaymondRay,  If you can setup a Windows LAN (local area network), you can create a file share and put your TntMPD database on it and give others read-write access to the folder it's in, then two people can open the database at the same time, and work simultaneously.

If the above makes no sense, stick to Dropbox!  :)
