Multiple DB's or not ??
Help!
OK i have different categories but i am looking into doing a database for each country that i need... but ecounter one problem, how do I search in all countries and all categories (all databases) at once, is there a way to do this or is there a script anybody has had this problem before?
Or should i just do one database with all the info, it would just be a mess, because there is similar records with two different countries....
thanks
Thanks

It would be possible to do a search through different databases, but a real mess. Unless it's completely impossible to put them all together, I would use one database.

real mess is an understatement. I started configuring DBMAN to search different types of database files with similar fields, but it got pretty hairy!

May be at a later time, I will be able to play around with it. (I hope that someone else comes up with a solution in the mean time.)
