At the moment, GenoPro does not have any database. What you can do is map a network drive, such as drive (Z
and use it to store all your GenoPro (.gno) files.Is it completely a separate
install on all the computers and they share their work by sharing their files by normal transfer to another Computers or Users who have GenoPro installed?
I am not sure to fully understand your question. You may install GenoPro also on the server and create a shortcut/link to GenoPro.exe, however for performance reasons, we recommend to install GenoPro on all clients. This way, if the network is down, the users may still use GenoPro. Transferring the .gno files over the network is rather quick, as a family tree or genogram is typically less than 100 KB.
We do however have an API to load and store files to a database. The full source code is available at http://www.genopro.com/sdk/External-Storage/. In addition, we are working on a true collaboration module where you may create a project and invite others to join. By default, a collaboration project is created on our server GenoPro.com, however it may be created to a private server. We are still working on this collaboration module to tweak minor things, such as synchronizing the exchange of pictures between clients.
