I have built an application using 4D 2.2.3. I have been using it in single-user
mode and would like to start using it in multi-user mode so that I could have
someone else working in the application at the same time. So, I have a few questions
about 4D in multi-user mode...

1. Will the application run using system 7's file sharing capabilities? Does a
mac have to essentially become a file server for 4D to work  or can the mac
which has the application run the application simultaneously with another user
on the network?

2. How much of a performance drop will occur using the network? How much of a
difference would using ethernet make?

3. Will I have to re-write sections of code to make things work in multi-user?

4. Any other problems that you can tell me about?

Thanks in advance! 
          Bob
