This ProModule provides a way for SongShow Plus to use Microsoft Access for its song database format.  The database structure is documented and accessible by tools like VB, VBA, MS Access, or any development tool that can access an MDB file.  Documentation for the MDB structure is contained within the MDB file.  The MDB files for this ProModule were built using Microsoft Access 2000.  

Because MDB files can be accessed and modified easily by scripting languages and other development tools, use of this ProModule is especially beneficial if you have the need to import song text data from another source, and you have the knowledge and programming skills to create an import routine that will copy the song data from a particular source into a User Database MDB file.

Another feature of this ProModule is that it provides capability for you to have two or more databases that are completely independent of each other.  This can be handy in cases where you may want to completely isolate song databases used by different departments within your church, or even those cases where more than one church organization is sharing the same facility.

Limited Technical Support

The SongShow Plus technical support team can provide you with help in using the User Database ProModule from within SongShow Plus.  However, no technical support is offered at this time in using the User Database MDB files with Microsoft Access or any other application development tool.
