Does Anyone else use the HMRC Basic PAYE Tools?

I want to know if its possible to change the location of the database so its on a network drive

Options > Application Settings > Database Location looks like a good starting point.

Try taking a backup and then moving the database somewhere else and see if it works!

Looked at that already, but its protected so it can't be changed

I have done back ups and restores onto the second computer, but wanted to try and keep both in sync all the time

Ah - so it is.

No idea then - I run it as HMRC intended and use SugarSync and Dropbox to keep a copy of the backups in the cloud thingy.

Yes, I've had to change the location of the PAYE Tools database for a client of mine so it's on the network drive instead of being on the local computer last week. This is the article that shows you how to do it if you're still wanting to do it as well: thisishelpful.com/fix-changing-location-hmrc-paye-tools-database-location.html

Hope that helps you out.

Thanks,
