>I found that in VFP 7 on Windows 2000 machines that 24/7 timers would become unresponsive. I could get the timer to continue by putting the mouse on the title bar and nudging it. It was a real PITA as this was a mission critical application.
Jeff,
Can you please elaborate on your solution? Do you mean the user manually put the mouse on the title bur or you have implemented some programmatic way around the issue?
For now we suggested the client to run a batch that will kill the application and re-start it once a day. If there is some tweak that can help, I'd like to hear about that solution in details.
BTW, we're using VFP9 with the latest patch and hotfix.
Thanks a lot again.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
