I'm using Citrix myself, the users aren't. And it's on only one server. So can't help you with any large experience there.
Few bits, though: I'm not using RUN command anywhere. I get much more control over the execution of the external code using late Ed Rauh's API_APPRUN class (download #
9477) - which is really simple and doesn't get influenced by bad .pif files. Also, if you're creating an Excel spreadsheet, use Automation:
oexcel= Createobject("excel.Application")
and you can do (almost) whatever you want with oExcel. I'm sure you'll find a lot of tools to make this easier.
Now if "access denied" is about a xls filename on Citrix that someone still has in use somewhere... then before trying to open that in Excel, try to open it low level, using fOpen()... if it can't open it exclusively, it won't raise an error, but will return -1 for a handle. Then you can try with a next filename.
