I'm using optimistic table buffering on some forms, record level on others. Biggest problem has been on one form having table buf. On entry into the form, he is not saving anything. The only thing the form does is open a view and fill a grid, but he is also having trouble with other forms. I have a on error routine to trap for errors but it never makes it. Machine totally freezes up requiring power recycle. So far he has NOT lost any data!
I'm not sure what protocol he is using. I had him start Windows without network drivers - still failed. Tried Safe Mode - ditto.
Thinking of sending him a old 200mb hd formatted. Customer is a old main frame programmer and is getting a kick out of this now. We may attempt a fresh install of Windows 98 and try it, in out attempt to rule out hardware.
I don't give up easily...

I remember having tremendous problems with buffered databases and peer-to-peer; if fact, there used to be a MS KB article advising not use buffering peer-to-peer (win95) and to use o/s locking (I guess that would translate to FLOCK() and RLOCK().
