Hello,

I will give it a try.

Thanks,

>>I use Doug Hennig's StartApp.exe utility to update my VFP program. I have a client that has both a Windows network and Novell network.

>>On the computers that run on the Windows network, the StartApp works just fine, i.e., if a file is changed on the server located on the Window network, that file is checked and updated on the client -- once updated on the client, it does not update on the client until it is again changed on the server.
>>
>>On the Novell network, the timestamp for the files are changed by 1 second from the timestamp on the server located on the Novell network, as such, each file is updating each time the VFP program starts -- which is slooooow and is a pain in the neck with as many files as I have on the server!
