OK, here's what I have:

- 2 computers on 2 different networks (standard home wifi networks)
- A software suite that uses a database file to store appointments, clients, etc.

- Windows 8 "server" desktop - this desktop runs the software suite (locally) and saves the changes to the database file.
- Windows 7 "client" laptop - this laptop also runs the same software (locally) and needs to be able to access the database file that is stored on the "server" desktop, so that when changes are made, the database is updated and it reflects on both systems.

Whats the best way for me to go about accomplishing this?
