&lt;p&gt;Let&amp;#39;s say you normally keep your database on your home computer and that you&amp;#39;re going on a support trip and you want to take your laptop with you.&amp;nbsp; You could &lt;a href="/tntmpd/faqs/en/add.aspx?ParentPageID=14#How%20do%20I%20transfer%20my%20database%20to%20another%20computer"&gt;[[en:how-do-i-transfer-my-database-to-another-computer|transfer your database]]&lt;/a&gt; to your laptop and go on your support trip.&amp;nbsp; Then when you return, you could transfer your database back to your home computer (copying the database over the one that is already there).&amp;nbsp; This way you could work with TntMPD on your support trip and keep any updates you made.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A husband and wife team could also employ a strategy like this.&amp;nbsp; One of the spouse&amp;#39;s computer could be designated the host of the &amp;quot;main database&amp;quot;.&amp;nbsp; This main database would be the only one where changes are made.&amp;nbsp; This database could be periodically [[en:how-do-i-transfer-my-database-to-another-computer|copied to the other spouse&amp;#39;s computer]].&amp;nbsp; This copy could be considered &amp;quot;read only&amp;quot;.&amp;nbsp; Any changes to be made would have to be made to the spouse hosting the main database, and then again copied to the other spouse&amp;#39;s computer.&amp;nbsp; This arrangement has the added benefit of always keeping a backup copy of the database on another computer.&amp;nbsp; If the main computer crashes, the other computer could pick up where the main computer left off.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How do I manually keep two copies of my database in sync?</title><link>https://www.tntware.com/tntconnect/faqs/en/how-do-i-manually-keep-two-copies-of-my-database-in-sync/revision/1.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 29 Sep 2008 17:41:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1fa7c37c-d68d-46f5-9639-4669b01a21c5:17</guid><dc:creator>Troy Wolbrink</dc:creator><comments>https://www.tntware.com/tntconnect/faqs/en/how-do-i-manually-keep-two-copies-of-my-database-in-sync/comments.aspx</comments><description>Revision 1 posted to Frequently Asked Questions by Troy Wolbrink on 9/29/2008 5:41:17 PM&lt;br /&gt;
