>From Sergey's message I presume that he is not much in favor of putting records of multiple companies into the same tables. And I thought of another approach you might want to consider. Probably much more involved but still an alternative. You could have a suffix number added to the database container and all tables for each company "database". E.g. Database01.d??, TableA01.dbf, Table01, Database02.d?? and so on. Then whenever you open a database or a table you would need to have the code to use the name with the appropriate company suffix.

I'm not sure where did you get this impression, but, IMHO, this new idea is much worse than having records for different companies stored inside the same centralized database.
