Chad, Can you share the PHP code and possibly an outline of the connection components? It sounds like the answer to an irritating problem that all TMS installations endure.

It uses the Windows 7 gadget platform, but also requires a PHP webserver with an ODBC connection to your database. ~Chad On Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 6:37 AM, Miskuly, Mary H. <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: Thanks Chad, What is the gadget called?

This helped to make people accountable for the amount of time they were logged in, eased the hassle of attempting to login when their were no licenses available, and also gave you a few "culprits" to call to see if they could log out so that you could login. ~Chad On Mon, Apr 11, 2011 at 8:54 AM, Rob Morgan <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: Hello TMS Users, Who has access to TMS at your museum? What departments have access to TMS? Here at The Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA), we don't have enough TMS licenses for our users. How does your institution solve this problem? At the BMA, we've created an internal version of eMuseum, so staff has access to collections information via this program. However, eMuseum hasn't taken the pressure off our TMS licenses. We're thinking about limiting TMS access to only curatorial (the rest of the staff can access collections information via eMuseum).
