WEAP file system Spyros Michas smichas <a href="mailto:smichas@hydroex.gr">smichas@hydroex.gr</a>Hello, Does anyone know where I can learn more about the WEAP file system? I've spotted the areas as folders in the "Program Files" folder of my computer.
Is it possible to define a shared folder in my network as a repository for the areas?

Running WEAP on a network Jack Sieber jsieber <a href="mailto:jsieber@tellus.org">jsieber@tellus.org</a>When you install WEAP, you can decide what folder to install it in. The default location is C:\Program Files\WEAP21, but you can install it anywhere you want, including a folder on a network drive. Once WEAP has been installed, each WEAP "Area" will be placed in its own subfolder under the main WEAP21 folder.
NOTE: although WEAP can be installed on a network drive, WEAP itself is NOT a multi-user system. Therefore, only one person at a time can run each instance of WEAP (a copy of WEAP installed to a particular folder)--otherwise, the data files could become damaged.

I suppose this means that I cannot have just the areas and related data somewhere else on the network in order to be shared, because they need to be under the installation folder of the software.

I don't remember that how it was installed, but in my Computer I don't like to install everything on program files. Now I use it from another folder. All of your Area will be made on WEAP folder on your computer. And interesting thing is if you uninstall WEAP or install a newer version all of your projects area will be remain and after first Running WEAP, it automatically changes. Ofcourse for the getting first result, it may take more time.
