Configuring the Company and User that Should Open during Startup

You can select the company that should be opened during startup for your user name. Suppose that you want to open company 002 as your standard company when you start MONITOR. You should then go to File | Change company.... Select company 002 and then check the Activate this company during StartUp (only for me) check box.

It is also possible for the administrator to in the Monitor.ini file, under the section [Start], add the parameter Company=XXX, where XXX is the company number. This parameter determines which company that should be opened as standard for all users. MONITOR opens company 001 as standard for all users if not the parameter Company=XXX exists in the Monitor.ini. If a user has selected that another company should be activated (as above), this will always override the setting made in Monitor.ini.

Startup Parameter F

Another alternative if you want to start a specific company (or if you want two MONITOR-sessions running at the same time with two different companies), is to configure two different shortcuts to MONITOR.

1. Right-click and select Properties for the respective path.
2. In the Target field under the Shortcut tab you add F=<database> after \\<Servernamn>\Monwin\monwin.exe L="C:\Monwin\.". For example, if your server is called "Server01" and you want to start company "002" directly, you enter:
   \\Server01\Monwin\monwin.exe L="C:\Monwin\." F=002

Startup Parameter U

It is possible to configure that a certain user always should log on to MONITOR when it is started, regardless of whom is logged on in Windows on the computer.

1. Right-click on the MONITOR shortcut and select Properties.
2. In the Target field under the Shortcut tab you add U=<user name> after \\<Servernamn>\Monwin\monwin.exe L="C:\Monwin\.". For example, if your server is called "Server01" and you want to start company "Charlie" directly, you enter:
   \\Server01\Monwin\monwin.exe L="C:\Monwin\." U=Charlie
