>I am running an NT4.0 server with approximately 30 workstations, most of the clients are 95's with a few running NT4.0 Workstation. I do not have a backend database (i.e. no: SQLServer, Oracle, Informix, etc.) I'm just running VFP5.0. I need advice on the "best" way to develop my database for multiuser access. For example, should I install my .EXE on the server? If so should the clients be mapped to the server or through a shortcut? Should I use views from the clients or remote views? If I use remote views how do I install the tables (database) on the server? What questions should I be asking? If you can help, thank you.

VFP is natural multi-user solution. Actually, it doesn't matter where you will place executables on server or locally. Remote views would be redundant and may slow down your application. The real place where you will have to implement multi-user paradigms is record edit interface, i.e. what kind of buffering, if any, you will apply to these forms.
