You may find it necessary to have multiple instances of EXACT open on one workstation, allowing you to copy data across or if you have multiple users working from one monitor.
Enabling EXACT to allow multi-login
- Right-click your EXACT icon on your desktop.
- Select Create Shortcut from the options.
- Select and right-click the new icon.
- Select Rename then enter EXACT_Multi (or something to highlight this is for multiple instances).
- Once renamed, right-click the icon again, and select Properties from the menu.
- Locate the field Target.
- Scroll to the end and locate the end quotation mark, highlight everything after this, then paste the following: /AllowLogin /MULTIPLEAPP
(some examples of this can be found below).
Note: Please take note of the space after the last quotation mark - Click OK to Save.
- Double-click EXACT_Multi to open EXACT, you can double-click this multiple times to open a new instance of EXACT.
Please Note: This Shortcut should be remain after an EXACT upgrade, as the Dental.exe file it points to, is always replaced with a newer version. |
