everytime, i try to share a database with another computer on my network and
they try to open it i get the message "can't find computer". we don't have a
server just a "hub"computer. i have tried all the troubleshooting ideas...
 
Hi Ingalou,

Can you ping the computer you want to connect to? If so, are the IP address
of both machines in the same subnet? By default, bcm creates an exception in
the windows firewall for out sql port. This exception only effective for
computers in the a subnet of 255.255.255.x. You can change this value in
the widnows firewall if your second computer lies outside of this range, bcm
won't beable to connect to it.
