If yes, the computer crashes. If no, the software won't run without this table. What I have done, is converted the memo field to an extremely long character field. This stops this error.

No, but there are serious issues with the Novell Client32 software, in all the versions I've checked through version 2.5, resulting in a wide variety of errors. My strongest recommendation is to use Microsoft's Client for NetWare or Client for NDS rather than Novell's Client32; if you must use Client32, make certain to disable write caching and packet burst at all stations, and disable File Compression on all drives on the NetWare server.
