Enumerator details

automatic - Automatic selection of connection type

The system tries to access the database according to the connection type of the client. When the client is connected to a server and opening the database fails, the system tries to open the database locally. When the client is not connected to a server an local opening of the database fails, the database will be opened via main client (when being connected to a server).
