There are two stages to the setup of the NotePager Net Client. The first stage is the setup of the NotePager Net Server. The NotePager Net Server must be installed, setup, and running in order to use the NotePager Net Client. It should be installed and setup before attempting to run the NotePager Net Client for the first time. The second stage is the setup of the NotePager Net Client application.
The NotePager Net Client sends messages to and receives information from the NotePager Net Server via a shared database file (pagegate.mdb). During the setup of the NotePager Net Server you are prompted for a location for this file. The file should be placed in a location where both the NotePager Net Server and the NotePager Net Client can access the file. In other words, the database file (pagegate.mdb) should be in a shared network folder to which both the NotePager Net Client and the NotePager Net Server have full rights. The default location for this file is the NotePager Net Server's program directory. To keep the file there and use the NotePager Net Client, you must share the NotePager Net program folder on your network.
During the setup of the NotePager Net Client, you are prompted for the 'Server Database'. You must enter (or browse using the button with three dots) the full path to the pagegate.mdb file. If the machine you installed the NotePager Net Server on was called 'pgserver', and you installed the server to a drive shared as c-drive, and the database was installed in it's default location, the full path would be:
\\pgserver\c-drive\program files\NotePager Net\
