MYOB Multi-user Support
I have been waiting to upgrade my office to OS X because MYOB doesn't support multi-user data file access in OS X, this is a must have feature for me.
At Macworld New York 2001 I had an oppurtunity to talk to the MYOB representive there and I mentioned this problem. At the time, they told me that multi-user support would be added in either an free update to AccountEdge v1 or it would be included in AccountEdge v2. AccountEdge v2 was released a last fall, and with no multi-user support. So this past Christmas I contacted MYOB again wondering when multi-user support would be made availbe, this time they told me that it should be ready by May. Well May has come and gone, and no update to add multi-user support to AccountEdge v2 has been released. I contact them again last week, and now the story is that it's a bug in OS X that Apple has to fix, that is preventing multi-user support, and that "hopefully" this bug will be fixed in Jaguar. I proceeded to contact Apple about this, and they told me that they were unaware that there was a bug in OS X that prevented MYOB from implementing multi-user functionality.
Does anyone know what is going on with multi-user support in OS X? Had anybody contact either MYOB or Apple about this problem? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
