Each ENVI-met database, System or User/Project, holds the following tables: | Each ENVI-met database, System or User/Project, holds the following tables: |
=== User Database === | === User Database === |
The **//User Database//** is the place where you can place all **your** personal data and settings. ENVI-met will not touch this database, even not when updating the software. However, you are responsible for the content of this database. If you add information that doesn't make sense e.g non-physical material properties, you will probably crash your simulation. The User Database is used for all projects unless you specifiy an individual project-centered database (see next paragraph). | The **//User Database//** is the place where you can place all **your** personal data and settings.

| By default, the User Database is stored in the ENVI-met program folder under **sys.userdata**. Starting with ENVI-met 5, you can also specifiy a different location for the User Database e.g. on a netwwork drive or in the cloud. |
