Sharing Bottles

Is there a right way to make Crossover "bottles" available to other users on my Mac?
Only one of us would be logged into the Mac and running the program at a time.
It's a Database application (Lotus Approach 97; I couldn't get Smartsuite 9.8.2 to run after installation).

I'd want both of us to share the same C drive, although the actual data for the database is on the Mac's hard drive in a shared location with sharing permissions.

Previously I used Wineskin, and just put the bottle onto a shared directory.
(I did occasionally have to kill the Wineskin process if it crashed.)

Hi there,

If you create a published bottle, that will be accessible to all users on a given machine. You can publish a bottle by selecting it in the left sidebar and finding the publish option in the right-click menu.

Best,
Meredith
