David,
This is a small LAN that is having the problem, NT server, 1 hub, 4 pc's with ethernet for all. TCP/IP and NetBUEI protocols. When the 2nd user gets in performance drops by 300% and stays that way until the everyone gets out and the 1st user can go back in, then user operates at normal speed.
A similar network setup with Novell and IPX protocol shows no problems no matter how many workstations are in the app.

>John,
>I would check your NT administrater and possible how your handling data across the LAN/WAN. I was running a 35 (10 people on local segment) person multi-user system across a T1 WAN with very little performance degradation. There was a large volume of transactions going across the T1 due to it being a real-time perpetual inventoring system.

>Thing that I did that helped:
>1) Create a normalized database.
>2)Placed executable and supporting file on an NT server on the other side of the T1.
>3) Loaded small (50 records or less),static, look-up information that is used through-out the application at start-up time.
>4) Used local view with table-buffering making sure to only read and write data when absolutely needed.
>5) utilized transaction processing.
>6) Used SYS(3051) to optimize SQL statements used in local views.
>7) Created supporting indexes on table to help optimize SQL statements.

>Hope this helps

>>I've posted this before but I'm really curious if anyone with mutli-user apps running on an NT 4.0 server and using Win95/98 workstations has seen large performance slow downs when multiple users are in the application.
