Globals vs. Multi-Users?

[Bill C.]

In a peer sharing (or FMP Server) situation how does FMP deal with globals? In particular if two users are using the same layout, but different records (in the same table), then can there be a race condition on a global in that table?

Thanks in advance.

Every users has own global fields in sharing databases.

Bill:

As Adam said, globals are local to the user. However, the default values of those globals are set in the solution itself, so that each time a user logs into the system, they are provided with the default globals, if they have been pre-set.

Thanks to both Adam & Stanley for clarifying how this works.
