GOAL:
How to connect a background process to a Personal Database
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x

The Personal Database product is designed to be used by a single person, nevertheless it is possible to connect additional local processes to the DB by starting a broker. Here are the steps to do this:
In Windows
1) Eliminate the single user parameter -1 from the client startup parameters used in the application shortcut or .bat file.
2) Go to the Windows Start button> Programs> Progress> PROENV and start a broker for the DB using the command:
proserve <Path and DB name>
3) Start the other Progress client sessions you need (up to 5).
In UNIX
1) Eliminate the single user parameter -1 from the client startup parameters used in the application script.
2) Set the environment variable DLC as follows:
DLC=<Your Progress installation dir.>; export DLC
3) Execute $DLC/bin/proenv.
4)Start a broker for the DB using the command:
proserve <Path and DB name>
5) Start the other Progress client sessions you need (up to 5).
