I deleted the Plan G simconnect script from the simconnect.xml and set the network computer Plan G connection setting to the rex simconnect script and it works.

Thanks,

Thank you for the quick response.  I copied the files from FSX computer to Network Computer.  I tried to connect to FSX.  Got message it could not find FSX, recheck configuration.  I went to the file, options, location, and input the location of the FSX.exe file by going to network, then the FSX program(86), etc to the FSX.exe file.  Then did the same thing for the scenery.cfg.  The FSX icon on the Data tab became active.  I rebuilt the database and it worked.  I know because I watched as it read all the files.   My simconnect.xml file when I did this was:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252" ?>
<SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0">

I cannot get it to connect to FSX.  I have loaded FSX 1st and Plan G 1st.  I have changed the Auto to IPv4, changed the port to 1507, 4508 and no difference.  I have gone to my DOS screen and input IPconfig to get my FSX computers IPv4 address which is xxx.xxx.x.100.  My networked computer is xxx.xxx.x.102.  The Gateway is different.  I know that you show the normal IP Address as 192.168.0.2, as an example, but it read as above on the Networked computer I cannot get the flightplans from the FSX computer because it does not know where they are.  I get the message "unable to connect to Flightsim (Timeout). Check to see if FSX is running"etc.  I have Rex running with no problem, which is the 1st code on the simconnect.xml.
Thanks,

I have Plan G installed on my FSX machine.  I updated the database with no problem.  I have Plan G installed on my Network machine using simconnect.  I do not find a Plan-G.mdb file in a Plan G folder on my FSX machine, But I have two Plan-G.mdb files one with a date of  12/18/09 and the other a date of 11/04/09.  On my network machine I have the map and asking me to Build the Database, but the FSX is grayed out.  There are not Plan-G.mdb files on the network machine.  Are the files I found in the search the correct files to move to the network computer and what file do I put them in?  I found them by a search.  These files came from the  my F Drive, Utilities Folder, which is the folder that holds my zip folders 0.8.1, 0.9.0., V2 does not have any.  I am certain that when I built the db it was from my FSX, but I don't know where it is.  I installed Plan G to my D drive, which is only for FSX in the Program files\TA Software\Plan G\Bookmarks, Data, DEM, Javscript, Plans, WebIcons.  Data has .sdf files, Plans has 9 flightplans, others are place holders,etc.  I never installed the earlier versions.

Thanks,
Lynn
