The fastest way is probably to buy the Client/Server engine. But Pervasive do have documentation.
Configure Workgroup or Workstation Engine to run as a ServiceThe document above is for WinNT 2000 and XP
Or alternativly if you do not want to use the Windows startup folder.
Add the following string value using "regedit" under Windows 9x - ME
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices]
Pervasive.SQL 2000 Workgroup = C:\\Pvsw\\Bin\\W3dbsmgr.exe -BTRV (for Max6 or older) -SRDE (Max 7)
Windows 9x executes any string value found in this key before you log on to the system.
When using this feature
There is no tray icon displayed for the Workgroup Engine
The Engine starts after the Operating System is loaded.
The Engine must be stopped using the Task Manager utility and the "End Task" option.
