Default How many databases can I use?

Hello!

I'm planning my first major application in Flash. Application will hold registration details of users in an Access database. However, I would like to hold users' preferences (i.e. theme, language, etc) in a separate database. It is likely that data from both databases will be requested at the same time.

Is it possible to do or will there be interference?
Please give some advice...

It is possible, but Why don't you think of having them in same database in different tables? That it would be easy to make joins when needed.

Hi!

I am building a website application that will be available for free. The idea is that all administrator has to do to install a new component, is to put folder with files and a standalone database on ftp and update links. That way even administrators with minimal knowledge can install components and (what is more important) update components independently of the system.

Still you can have those data in same database in different tables and develop an UI for the administrator to get that popoulated independently too.

Dear FlashMan It can be done to data from both databases at same time with out interference. But I think the Vijay is right that you should use one data base with different tables in it
