Scutters and Mike Da Spike are proud to present "Database manager for PBX"
We built this program to make it easier for ourselves to update/add tables in PBX.
Beforehand, please make a copy of your database directory (and maybe your media folder too)!
We are not responsible that anything goes wrong.
(but it is proofed that we don't wreck any database files or media files )
