The Method Listener requires that the QB program and your QB database be housed together otherwise some its core features do not work properly with the SDK. </span></font></span></font></font></span></p> <p><span style="COLOR:#1f497d;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;"><font size="3"><font face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE:10pt;COLOR:blue;FONT-FAMILY:&#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;"><font color="#000000"><span style="FONT-SIZE:10pt;FONT-FAMILY:&#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-font-family:&#39;Times New Roman&#39;;">So having said that, you can choose to pull the QB program off the server, but you’d have to bring the Method Listener with it, leaving your QB database on the server only. You would want to designate an additional computer to run just the QB program and Method Listener, ensuring that this computer is in communication with the server so that changes in QB will be updated in Method and vice versa. It&#39;s also important to note that if you&#39;re set up this way and you don&#39;t have the computer with the Method Listener on all the time, the changes will be updated the next time the computer is connected to the internet and QB is launched. </span></font></span></font></font></span></p> <p><span style="COLOR:#1f497d;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;"><font size="3"><font face="Calibri"><span style="FONT-SIZE:10pt;COLOR:blue;FONT-FAMILY:&#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;"><font color="#000000"><span style="FONT-SIZE:10pt;FONT-FAMILY:&#39;Verdana&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-font-family:&#39;Times New Roman&#39;;">Hope this helps! <img src="http://methodintegration.com/cs/emoticons/emotion-2.gif" alt="Big Smile" /><br /></p></span></font></span></font></font></span>http://forums.method.me/cs/forums/thread/218.aspxWed, 27 Aug 2008 16:47:24 GMT3393c1ec-311b-4812-96cb-ad8c611bba4f:218Ron Soukup0http://forums.method.me/cs/forums/thread/218.aspxhttp://forums.method.me/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=218<p>Has there been any consideration for the larger companies running the QB Database Server Manager hosting the files across their network? In other words...can the Method Integration Engine listen on the server and push the info up to the web without having a copy of the QB program running on the server? (which we don&#39;t)</p>
