Data Folder question

I have a home network and I have AB on the basement (game room)
computer and on the upstairs computer. I use the upstirs computer
the most for updates et al.

Is it possible to switch the data source for the basement computer
to the data file in the upstairs computer. This way I only need to
keep one computer updated with data files - yet both would draw from
this knowledge base?

You could, but it would be a totally unrelated-to-armybuilder answer. :)

You'd need to delete the /armybuilder/data folder on your basement
computer, and mount the /armybuilder/data folder on your upstairs computer
as the /armybuilder/data folder on your basement computer. I've never done
this before, but I believe it's possible. It may well be slower than is
useful due to the data over network transferage, so be warned.

That is an idea. But it would be nice to have a feature where I
could make a path to the data file folder on the network.

More ideas for a future version! :)
